To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" interrupted Lord Mount Helicon, in a tone that would have made most men start. " You don't mean to say you want to marry Miss Kettering ? " " Well, I think she wants to marry me, " rejoined Lacquers, perfectly unmoved ; " and you know one can't refuse a lady ; but it's only fair to say she hasn't actually ashed me. " Lord Mount Helicon felt for a moment intensely dis- gusted. Blanche's beauty, and her simple, pretty manner, had touched him, as far as a man could be touched who had so many iro...ns in the fire as his lordship, but the im- pulse for fun, the delight he experienced in quizzing his unsuspecting friend, soon overcame all other feelings, and he proceeded to egg Lacquers on, and assure him of his undoubted success, for the express purpose of amusing himself with the hussar's method of courtship. "Besides, " thought he, "such a flat as this hanging about her will keep the other fellows off ; and with a girl like her, I shall have little difficulty in ' cutting him out. ' " So he advised his friend to take time, and " allow her to get accustomed to his society, and gradually entangled in his fascinations ; and then, my dear fellow, " he added, " when she finds she can't live without you — when she has got used to your engaging ways, as she is to her poodle's — when she can no more bear to be parted from you than from her bullfinch, then speak up like a man — bring all your science into play — come with a rush — and win cleverly at the finish !
