To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Man has a soul of vast desires. Time cannot fill them. He has a mind, whose thirst after knowledge can only be quenched at the fountains of Eternity. He is conscious that its capacity, although not its power, is equal to its de- sires, but that in this life neither can be satiated. What then ? Shall he stand still doing nothing, attempting nothing, desiring nothing ? And when his relations with time are dissolved, enter on the career of eter- nity with nothing gained and every thing to acquire ...? Or shall he not rather aim at as high a point as he can attain, persuaded, that, in refer- ence to intellectual growth and development, Eternity will take him up precisely where Time sets him down. If man, in a future state, is to find his delightful employment in forever advancing from one degree of knowledge to another in endless progression, his happiness augmenting in proportion as, by increase of knowledge, he approximates the Divi- nity, how disgraceful to enter on his Eternal career, quite unfurnished for the race!
