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

Of all his works, his favorite production was the Karl of Leicester's house, at Holkam, i...n Norfolk. The great hall, with the flight of steps at the upper end, in which he proposed to place a colossal Jupiter, was a noble idea.

The bridge, the temple, the great gateway, all built, I be- lieve, the two first certainly, under Kent's own eye, are alike passed off as the works of another ; and yet no man need envy or deny him the glory of having oppressed a triumphal arch with an Egyptian pyramid.
