To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In this way the Parthenon is being chipped to pieces by inches. The innu- merable idiots that visit it have unwittingly pil- loried their own names for the execration of suc- ceeding ages. I noticed the same autograph mania on top of the Cathedral of Milan. The delicate pilasters and sculptures that make a mar- ble museum of its roof were, wherever it was pos- sible, scribbled over by the pack that ostensibly go up to see the view, but really it seems to leave behind their wretched names. Jones..., Smith, and Robinson on the Acropolis indeed ! Could not a Bridge of Sighs, or a series of Pozzi, be con- structed for these people ?
GREEK VIGNETTES. 10 1 I was interrupted in my account of the Acropolis by the sound of the dinner-bell, or rather of the preparation-bell, which in this hotel rings like a fire-bell and is equal to an American gong. I went down to find our usual table d'hote set : an Englishman talking French, a Russian officer, two other Britishers just returned from a trip through Syria and Constantinople, and five or six Greeks talking alternately in their own lan- guage and in French.
