To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A few months before his death, he went on one of his accustomed journeys and took with him his child, not yet two years old, — he returned, but to breathe his last in his loving Catherine's arms. No sooner was he dead than Catherine deserted her parents and her associates. On a waste track of the glen, near Oakfield village, was a lonely cottage, there she dwelt under the assumed name of Madge Freeman ; desolately her days seemed to wear away. She asked not for, nor accepted, the simplest token... of kindness; her cottage door was unfastened by day and night ; she was good and generous to all her poor neighbours — appeared to possess ample to supply her few wants, and, save for Kate Mario w and Frederic Stanley, shewed no earthly fond- THE CURSE. 193 ness. Beauty still traced its character in her dark eye and raven hair ; her face and form was one which a Margaret of Anjou, or a Joan of Arc, might have possessed, — lofty, striking, born to command and subdue, bold, decisive. You might have asked why she looked so old, for it was not with years — the hair was untouched, the forehead unwrinkled, but the cheek was sallow, sunken.
