To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If he did, peo* pie might suppose that he had never been accustomed to any thing better ; whilst it is his darling wish to' produce the im- pression that he was ^ bom so high," that nothing gotten up by inferior mortals for his amusement could merit his appro- bation. His tastes are too refined, his habits too luxurious to be gratified among the herd. Content is plebeian, and ap- plause decidedly vulgar. A peasant can feel one, "the groundlings " do the other. An English gentleman should conseq...uently know neither. How could h6 be guilty of such injustice to his caste, as to appear amused by what other people took interest in? And besides, if he should so far forget himself, as to appear contented with what he or- dered of a menial, the English would immediately conclude that he was not much accustomed to being waited on. 86 after all, if an Englishman was not morose by nature, the trammels of the society in which he lives would inevitably make him so. Circumstances compel him to be noisy, blus- tering, and bullying, with those whose services his money temporarily commands ; whilst it is equally incumbent on him to be silent and forbidding among those whose position in life he is not perfectly well assured of It would be as' shocking to his sense of his own importance in encouraging the advances of others, to bo^ contaminated by familiar in- tercourse with an individual of inferior pretensions, as to be snubbed in too boldly addressing somebody, whose rank conferred on him tho privilege of being rude.
