To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

To the average person, it im- pHed little more than a condition of beatification ; strength and honour and glory and blessing were the endowment of the immortals on Mount Olympus. But they were only glorified men, and their company could be attained by men like Hercules and Romulus. A good man, even on earth, might be known as pcene deus. Julius Caesar claimed the title of divus or divine, and Augustus, though he never assumed the title Deus, made ample preparation for its application to him af...ter his death. We must remember that no moral attributes were attached to the deities ; it was merely a question of strength or wisdom. Power and force were the attri- butes, 'par excellence, of godhead. Power and force were the obvious privileges of the City of Rome ; she was the undisputed mistress of the world. But, as time went on, the imperial city became more and more levelled to the rank of the other cities of the Empire, and the power passed into the hands of the Emperor. The stable government of the world depended more and more on his absolute power.
