To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What marvel, however poignant the grief, if the allegiance of many of the best and holiest spirits amongst us, is shaken, or transferred to another quarter; where those who are disturbed with fears and doubts seek to find rest; those who require the active ex- 19 ercise of their powers, to find a wide field of employment; the devout heart to be refreshed with the regular and con- tinual services of prayer and praise : and all to obtain sup- port in leaning upon an authority which claims obedien...ce ; as inheriting from the Apostles, and exercising a power to open and shut, to remit and retain sins. That all these will be disappointed of finding what they seek, at least to their entire satisfaction, is easily said, and may be readily believed. The great question, hoAvever, is whether they might not, some at least, be retained among us. It has pleased God to make the character and complexion of men's minds as various as of their bodies. If those who are of a free and bold disposition may be indulged in " the freedom wherewith Christ hath made us free, " taking the caution that they " use not this liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, " surely those who are more timid and flexible may have equal indulgence granted to their fears and poverty of spirit.
