To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Although written seven years prior to Stevenson's death, and thus before some of the most remarkable productions of his genius had appeared, there is but little in i Mr. James's paper which would require modi- fication to-day. Himself the wielder of a literary style more elusive, more tricksy than Stevenson's, it is difficult to take single passages from his paper, the whole galaxy of thought and suggestion being so cleverly meshed about by the dainty frippery of his manner.
Mr. James begins by
... regretting the ' extinction of the pleasant fashion of the literary portrait, ' and while deciding that no individual can bring it back, he goes on to say: It is sufficient to note, in passing, that if Mr. Stevenson had r 226 STEVENSONIANA presented himself in an age, or in a country, of portraiture, the painters would certainly each have had a turn at him. The easels and benches would have bristled, the circle would have been close, and quick, from the canvas to the sitter, the rising and falling of heads.
