To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In short, the winter passed not unpleasantly away : I had now nothing to annoy me in the work-shed ; and my only serious care arose from my unlucky house in Leith, for which I found myself summoned one morn- ing by an officer-looking man, to pay nearly three pounds, — the last instalment which I owed, I was told, as one of the heritors of the place, for its fine new church. I must confess I was wicked enough to wish, on this occasion, that the prop- erty on the Coal-hill had been included in th...e judgment on the Musical Festival. But shortly afler, not less to my as- tonishment than delight, I was informed by Mr. Veitch that he had at length found a purchaser for my house ; and, afler getting myself served heir to my father before the court of the Canongate, and paying a larger arrear of feu-duty to that venerable corporation, in which I had to recognize my feudal superior, I got myself as surely dissevered from the Coal-hill as paper and parchment could do it, and pocketed, in virtue of the transaction, a balance of about fifby pounds.
