To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The sermon alone was free and ' understanded of the people, ' and the message of the pulpit was liable to neither check nor criticism except from those fame priests whose science was so deep a mystery. The Reformation changed all that. The prayer-book disclosed to the poorest and most ignorant the nature of the petitions which were offered in their behalf, and in some of which they were invited to join. The Bible being now open, the words of the preacher were subjected to tests of fidelity, sta...ndards of orthodoxy, and a rigour of judgement hitherto not known or not tolerated in the book or its readers. As has 60 THE AGE OF TRANSITION.
lu. V:i frequently remarked, the Anglican Reformation was essentially a compromise which sought to preserve what- ever was valuable in the traditions of the Church, whilst rejecting those accretions which had been proved by ex- perience not merely superfluous, but hurtful. The acute and permanent division of opinion between the moderate section of the community, which determined the character and extent of the changes, and the enthusiasts and extrem- ists, who by their fortitude and constancy had brought the Reformation within the scope of practical statesmanship, necessitated the delicate adjustment of points of doctrine and a wise and worthy choice of expressions so as to con- ciliate that large body of Englishmen which had not definitely committed itself to any party, which leaned to conservatism and sober commonsense, and whose chief incentive to reform was patriotism that particular species of national feeling which took the shape of hostility to Rome.
