To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This department alone would make a notable Museum. The collection in aggregate might be described as a Bostonian immensely magnified, far beyond possibility here. In Austria also is the Tyrolese Museum^ occupying a large recent building in Innsbruck^ and illustrating times Roman to modem. We might wish we could show as much about Otis, Hancock, or Adams, as is here shown about Hofer the Tyro- lese patriot. In the German Empire are not a few historical collections of which I will mention half a ...dozen, leading on at last to the greatest of all, not only in Germany, but, of its sort in the world. In Berlin is the very large, varied, and interesting Hohen- zoUem Museufpiy of personal objects associated with the past sovereigns. I know of no other like it, and comparable with it, unless that of the Romano£Fs already mentioned. At Hannover is the Welf Museum, largely of mediaeval ob- jects, and others about which space does not allow me to say what I wish to say, and might say. [iS] HISTORICAL MUSEUMS In Augsburg is the Maximiliaiis Museum with Roman to recent work, and much that is local, to which the same remark must apply.
