What reading level is Gleanings of Past Years 1843 78 volume 3 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The culmination and perfection of the Christian morality was found in that high and severe doctrine of marriage, against which, wo may confidently anticipate, and almost venture to predict, that the anti- christian spirit will dir-ect its first great attack, encouraged IN MATTERS OP OPINION. 155 by those preliminary operations in the legislative recog- nition of divorce which liave already, from a variety of ill-oiiienod causes, found a place upon our own, as well as upon other statute-books. 3...0. Some liave been bold enough to say that the wide recognition, at the present day, of ethical doctrines in practical forms is due not to Christianity, but to the progress of civilisation. In answer to them, I will only lialt for a moment, to ask the question liow it came that the Greek and, in its turn, tlie Roman civilisation, each advancing to so great a height, did not similarly elevate the moral standards. And I shall by anticipation put in a caveat against any attempt to reply merely by exhibit- ing here and there an unit picked out of the jjhilosophio schools, or the ideal pictures which may be found in the writings of a tragedian ; pictures which have no more to do witli the 2>i'fictical life of contemporary Greece, than have the representations of the Virgin and the Child, 80 much admired in our galleries, with the lives and characters of tliose who look on them, or in most instances of those who painted tliera.
