To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When he asked to wash his hands, a fine huckaback towel, neatly marked with initial letters, was handedhim. On inquiry, he learned that it had come from a wreck in which therewere several ladies.
"There was something inexpressibly painful to the sensitive heart ofmy dear husband, in being thus surrounded by tokens of calamity. Heinquired, with a sigh, whether any efforts had been made to help thesufferers?
"'Oh, yes!' said his host, a worthy man, though rough in his address andappearance. 'Yes!... we do our best, but it is very seldom our help comesin time to be worth much. Once or twice we have saved a solitary seamanby throwing a rope, or by sending in our dogs to drag others ashore; andsome years ago there were seven men wrecked in the night, unknown to us. When the morning came, I was out early and discovered footmarks alongthe shore, which told me a tale I could read plain enough. I knew therehad been a fearful gale some hours before, and my mind misgave me thatthese poor creatures, whose footsteps I saw, would perish of hunger inthe interior, where they could find nothing to eat, and where there wasnot a solitary cottage at which they could get help.
