To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As long as the masses of onr people are too poor to be good parents or good anything else except beasts of burden^ it is no use requiring much more from them but hewing of wood and drawing of water: whatever is to be doile must be done for them^ mostly^ alas ! by people whose superiority is merely tech- nical. Until we abolish poverty it is impossible to push rational measures of any kind very far: the wolf at the door will compel us to live in a state of siege and to do everything by a bureauc...ratic martial law that would be quite unnecessary and indeed intolerable in a prosperous community. But. however we settle the question^ we must make the parent justify his custody of the child exactly as we should make a stranger justify it. If a family is not achieving the purposes of a family it should be dissolved just as a marriage should when it^ too^ is not achieving the purposes of marriage. The notion that there is or ever can be anything magical and inviol- able in the legal relations of domesticity^ and the curious confusion of ideas which makes some of our bishops im- agine that in the phrase " Whom God hath joined," the word God means the district registrar or the Reverend John Smith or William Jones, must be got rid of.
