To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is one quarter which is, 1 think, extremely assailable, and which Major Dugald Dal- getty would unquestionably have pressed him to fortify. Still, as he truly said, it miglit stand a siege of some length from a native army, and its situation on the Ganges in ^its nearest approach to the Goorkah territories, might make such a defence by no means unimportant, in the event of a rup- ture with those mountaineers. It is this possibility, indeed, which now constitutes the principal value of the... great "sta- tions of Dinapoor and Ghazeepoor.
After breakfast I went to Captain Field's house, which he had arranged, as well as it admitted of, as a church. The principal room, and the adjoining verandah, were filled with old soldiers: two little rooms on each side contained, to my surprise, a number of natives, mostly women and children, while some officers and their wives were ranged round my desk. All were very attentive, and the old soldiers more particularly, (who had almost all prayer books, ) joined in the responses with a regularity, an exactness, and a zeal, which much aifected me, and showed how much, in their situation, they felt the blessing of an opportunity of public worship^ 1 more than half repented of my intention to leave tTieni before Monday.
