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

Pope's Essay on Man, and his Moral Essays. In the former the poet has aimed at being methodical ; but I perfectly agree with Dr. Johnson, that the metaphysics ar" execrable, while the morality is pure, and 169 sometimes sublime, the knowledge of human nature it displays profound, and the poetry incomparable.
There is extant a posthumous work of Lord Bolingbroke, purporting to be the substance of several conversations between him and Mr. Pope, the object of which is to prove that the whole matte
...r of the Essay on Man was dictated by his lordship, while Mr. Pope was little more than a versifier. To me it appears that the work in question was rather taken from the Essay on Man than the Essay from it ; and neither Lord Bolingbroke nor Mr. Pope was the author of the system on which it is founded ; for it is undoubtedly borrowed altogether from King's Origin of Evil : a work abundantly in- genious, but fallacious in its principles, and in- accurate in its conclusions.
The best passages in the Essay on Man are the delineations of character, and of these there are none finer than the following : " Honour and shame from no condition rise ; " Act well your part, there all the honour lies.
