To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" She sighed heavily : " A castle in Spain is well enough — but when one has to walk up and down the stairs ! " But, after all, why should " poor Johnny's one pleasure " be spoilt by criticism ? Even Langley sometimes lent an indulgent ear because "if it weren't for that blessed old house he would be fretting himself to fiddle-strings about his wife, and no one would have any peace, least of all herself. " The duty of making himself disagreeable fell, as usual, upon the conscientious Shaw. He h...ad got hold of two very useful rules : windows should not equal more than a fourth or less than a tenth of the floor space, and a thousand feet of air per head must be allowed in each room in continu- ous occupation. Unluckily Johnny never grasped NATHANIEL 105 the difference between superficial area and cubic contents for more than an hour at a time, and in his calculations he almost invariably confused them, and these excellent maxims bore strange fruit.
Shaw then made a few inquiries into the water supply, and learnt with dismay that the drinking- water had to be fetched from a spring three hundred yards away and accessible to cattle, and no under- ground rain-water tanks had been provided.
