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

V-::>^.^^^ sii s E li mm ENLARGING CHANNEL: PROTECTING OUTLET. 379 effect a greater deepening than unaided scour could produce, and also to prevent the material scoured out of the trained channel from forming a shoal in front of the mouth of the river, a result which interfered at first with the due improvement of the access to the River Maas by the cut across the Hook of Holland, whose enlargement to the proper width was originally left to the scour of the currents, which did not effect the re...quisite widening, and deposited a considerable part of the material it removed from the narrow cut in the wide jetty channel, so that eventually the cut had to be widened and the deposit removed by dredging, and the jetty channel narrowed by an inner southern jetty (Fig. 215, p. 362).
The rate of enlargement of the trained channels referred to above, in relation to their lengths, amounts to i in 80 for the Maas between Rotterdam and the sea, i in 75 for the Nervion from Bilbao to its mouth, and i in 7 1 for the Weser from Bremen to Bremerhaven, which ratios correspond very closely to the rate of enlargement of the Clyde of i in 83 between Glasgow and Dumbarton, and of the Tyne of i in 75 between Newcastle and its mouth ; and in these cases, with the exception of the Weser, the fall of the river-bed seawards is inappreciable, and only slight in the Weser below Bremen.
