To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the family of the Southern planter or farmer, al- though wine may be drank and cards played, all is done at home under paiental and femjnine observation: and therefore excess can never go so far. Of course the sons of planters visit the cities, but those in their neighborhood aretrivial in size, and meagre in attractions — those more distant are the more seldom seen. The ancient poets, who thought that the lower regions, were the abode of great and good men, as well a;j bad, located the entr...ance in a remote and solitary place. Thus Homer conducts Ulysses on this visit to the shades of his bi'oiher warrior Greeks, to a thinly settled country of dark skinned people.
[31 ] "When lo, we reached old Ocean's utmost bounds, Where rocks control his waves with ever-duiing mounds. There in a lonely land and gloomy cells, The dusky nation of Cimmeria dwells, There he found the portals of the infernal world. So Virgil conducts Eneas to the sombre and solemn forest of the Cumean sybil. But with our improved conceptions of the character of that place and its inmates, and the most direct avenues to ap- proach it, the modern Epic poet who desires to give his hero a view of it, will have to fix the gateway in the heart of a gerat city where the vices hold their revels.
