To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There were eggs with their em- bryo chickens, variously prepared ; and a stew, which, for aught I know, might have been young puppies, consisted of very white and delicate-looking meat. Without doubt their puppies are very good, for they are exceedingly particular in the breed, which they rear for their tables, selecting only those that are white, and fattening them with meal as carefully as we do any of our domestic animals.
Poultry, vegetables, and fruit were brought for sale to the beach in ...great abundance, and were both cheap and good. A small un- leavened cake appeared very common ; they were about two inches in diameter, perfectly white, with a pink coloured stamp consisting of Chinese characters on the top. We found them a very good substitute for bread.
Having collected all that could be saved BRINGING OFF BULLOCKS. 265 of our once fine boat, I took leave of my hospitable entertainers, and shoved off. Just then an unhappy duck that had been purchased popped his head up above the gunwale of the boat, at which a Chinaman made a snatch, and caught it by the neck, ; but as the drake was securely tied to his mate, he could not get it out of the boat, and a shake of a boat-hook, with a look from the bowman, made Fokie quickly drop his expected prize, — the whole crowd, though about ten yards off, shrinking back at the mere threatening attitude of the seaman.
