To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Shrive no souls for him either with the fragrance of the incense flung from within the chan- cel from golden censors, and rolled up against the face of the mag- nificent marble altar of the cathedral. Shrive no souls for him with the pungent aroma of the caraway-seed, that floods and per- 53 meates every country meeting-house in New England. No raiment or aroma, of human patching, would be accepted by him as the clothing of Christianity. A text of Scripture torn from its setting and poked into ...the crevice of a boulder, did not sanctify the rock for him as the corner-stone of the true church. Such men do not become near-sighted and cross-eyed from daily readings and re- readings of decalogue, and canons, and " land marks, " for they behold, riding on the arch of the rainbow, the promised metropolis from Heaven, as on the morning of summer storms the sun bursts through the heavy clouds ; and they could not do the forbidden deeds. The tomes of learning and philosophy, so called, which pertain to discursive, speculative opinions of mankind about the details of the hereafter, would not be trodden under foot by him ; but he would walk around them until he could meet, and solicit the grasp of the hand of the brother alone capable of helping him, because the saluted friend put as good fruit in the bottom of the basket as was displayed in the upper rows.
