To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

If, while beneath their vines the borderers live, Such words the gentlest to the gentlest give, Yet, soon as bitter shafts are on the wing.
Another banner to the breeze they fling.
Peace, courtesy, love, may grace the tents of men ; But bearnot these within the wild wolf's den.
I. Then, from the den away ! and well beware Lest thine own feet should find the hunter's snare !
Yes, bitter shafts are sped ! scarce viler flew When his fierce taunts the Assyrian boaster threw !
Just in that hour, whe
...n, hastening to repose.
The seventh day's sun with hohest softness glows, Then, like the car that rolled from door to door With the plague's dead, and only asked for more, Comes the black sheet,"' unchristened save in name, And strews the gathered poison of its shame.
I seek not words of fire ; but tears may flow.
And warmth may mingle with foreboding woe, When, pert and coarse and reckless and profane.
Quenching all love, and nursing all disdain, The idol press pollutes our Sabbath rest, And claims the holy hearth, a brawling guest, ments are administered, wherever salvation is preached through faith in him, there is a branch of the Church of Christ ; there is a portion of God s "^'^'43 » ThL°™ says Whately, "who shall have disdained all politic disguise, suppression of truths and connivance at error, as intrinsicalv evit derogatory to the cause of our religion, and indicating a want of faith in God will afterwards find by experience that the most frank, manly, and straightforward course is also the wisest ; and will have averted many of the evils into which a timorous and crooked policy, adopted through appre- •hension of those evils, would have led them." 41 " Palmam qui meruit, ferat." 40 The lip of scorn o'er pleading candour curled, And courtesy left to rule the smiling world ; Till, stripped of might, still Bonner seems to roar, And Peters^' lifts the Roundhead's axe once more.
