To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Colony of Plymouth was democratic from the beginning. The people who landed in 1620 in Massachusetts Bay, amid the cold and snows of December, had been exiles from Eng- land before they were emigrants to America. They left their country without her motherly blessing, and the latest recol- lections of their native home were associated with the bitterest and most relentless persecution. Monarchy, prelacy and aristocracy, were equally abominations in their sight. They came not therefore, forth... like the other Colonies, under the patronage of titled wealth or noble families. They were the people themselves, going forth with strong hearts and toil worn hands, to fell the forest and create a world of their own. Their Democracy was organized on board the May- flower, before a Pilgrim had set foot upon the shore. The little Republic began to be, when forty-one signatures were affixed to the following document : " In the name of God, amen. We whose names are under- written, the loval subjects of our dread sovereign, King James, having undertaken, for the glory of God and the advancement of the Christian faith, and the honor of our king and country, a voyage to plant a Colony in the northern parts of Virginia, do by these presents, solemnly and mutually, in the presence of God, and one of another, covenant and combine ourselves together, into a civil body politic, for our better ordering and preservation and furtherance of the ends aforesaid, and by virtue hereof to create, constitute and frame such just and equal laws, ordinances, acts, constitutions and offices, from time to time, as shall be thought most conve- nient for the general good of the Colony.
