To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As the bright sunbeams pierce the reign of night, The unknown future he revealed in light, And raptured thousands in his footsteps trod, And owned the influence of the Son of God.
He closed his earthly course, so mild, so pare, In agony that life could not endure ; To save mankind, he yielded up his breath, And laid him down in the cold arms of death.
The boon to man this Holy Being brought, The priceless change that with his blood was bought.
The world, in all her farthest bounds has felt.
And... heathen millions to our God have knelt ; They, through the Faith by the Redeemer given.
Have sought, with confidence, the Christian heaven, It came from God to light this darken'd earth.
And shall return to Him who gave it birth, When, summoned by the last dread trumpet's tone, Assembled myriads meet before his throne : Then shall that Faith, on earth the Christian's stay, Sustain those myriads on that dreadful day !
Ere we, our way o'er history's path resume, Let us, upon the glory and the gloom' Of Ancient Greece, but for a moment dwell; That land which, erst, fair Science loved so well- That land, the birth-place of the great, the brave.
