To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And this is as much their duty to their own bishops, who convoke them for the purpose, as it is to the Church at large. And I conceive that it is on this ground that we can securely place our justification for uniting in such associa- tions as the present. If our ecclesiastical organization were complete, or even if circumstances were such as they have been, it might be different. But while we are deprived of the legitimate mode of expressing the grievances, or pro- viding for the emergencies o...f the Church, and yet are legally and constitutionally bound by the act of our repre- sentatives, if they acquiesce in the existing state of things, it becomes in a manner necessary that, if we wish to recover our undoubted constitutional rights, we should take some steps towards it. But before we proceed to point out the precise steps which seem to be within our power towards the accomplish- ment of this object, it is requisite that we be satisfied first, that the object in itself is desirable.
