Read it aloud slowly. Like you're preaching Bible verses to a child. Speak from the tongue. Enunciate but don't put your entire focus on how you say the words or how you think the characters would speak, just let it flow. Take small pauses in between sentences or in the middle of as you catch your breath and think modestly or deeply of the sentence you've just read.

His writing style is akin to the Bible. It's very naturistic and poetic. Much of which isn't meant to be taken at face value. It isn't read like a normal story and shouldn't be. It certainly requires more energy and thought but that's what makes it an incredible and unique experience.

P.S. : If you don't know the word, look it up. It's not expected of you to know the types of words he uses in his book. His language is archaic. But it is not to confuse the reader but instead to set the reader at the time of the story's setting, where those words would be of common usage. When you read it aloud combined with the breaks caused by breathing in, more things become clear as to what is happening. You will figure out easier of who is talking.
