To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
23*7 coiled up. Whence those tears of vexation? whence that pang of annoyance % whence that gleam of sunshine shooting across the heart on an otherwise gusty day ? Let us trace them to the principles from which they arose, and we shall have made some advance towards the de- sired discovery.
When the discovery is made, the path of the spiri- tual combatant becomes clear, however arduous. Your fighting is to be no longer a flourishing of the arms in the air ; it is to assume a definite form, it i...s to be a combat with the bosom sin. Appropriate mortifica- tions must be adopted, such as common sense will sug- gest, varying with the nature of the sin, and combined always with a heartfelt acknowledgment of our utter weakness, and with a silent but fervent prayer for the Grace of Almighty God. If indolence be the beset- ting sin, we must watch against slovenliness in little things, which is the mild form of the complaint ; if selfishness, we must lay ourselves out to consider and gratify the wishes of others ; if vanity, we must se- cretly bless God in our heart for all mortifications of it, and particularly avoid the snare of speaking hum- bly of ourselves ; if discontent, we must review, in our seasons of devotion, the many bright points of our position, and seek our happiness in our work ; if hu- man respect, we must habituate ourselves to look at our actions as we shall look at them when the judgment of God upon them will be the only matter of importance ; if sensuality, the discipline of fasting and abstinence from some innocent enjoyments must be used as far as health permits.
