To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In our prosperity we have forgotten our dependence. Denying the Author of our mercies, we have virtually said, " My power and the might of my hand hath gotten me this great- ness. " And He is rebuking our ingratitude and pre- sumption. But He is not a vindictive Sovereign. Judgment is His " strange work. " The temper which prompts a nation to prayer, will lead them to peni- tence also; and if we return to God, Ciod will return to us. But this is not enough. If Christianity is to be the arbiter ...of these strifes, she will enjoin a very different treatment of the subject which has occasioned them, from that which has prevailed of late years. And here, before proceeding, let me meet a senti- \ 19 ment which may possibly be upon the lips of some who are present. You will say to me, " Why do you speak only of the misdeeds of the North'? Has the South been guiltless in this matter "? Have we no aggres- sions to complain of? And slauery itself, — why do you not denounce the system, while you are telling us what Christianity demands of ?(.
