To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
My cot- tage is never visited by the sex, except a maiden aunt, who was twenty years of age, thirty-three years since, and who now and then calls to exhort me to matrimony ; and, in short, the gooi old creature details her subject with such pathetic eloquence, that I almost resolve on conversion. But during my pilgrimage in diis world, 1 have profit- ed much by forty years experience ; while in my teens, the fantasies of love danced around my volatile imagination, and often bewildered and confo...unded my romantic senses. But no sooner had sober manhood come to my assis- tance, than I renounced all the allure- ments of love, and yielded to serious reflection. It is twenty-four years, last November, since I bid adieu to the face of Camilla. Were I to describe her with the emotions I then felt, 1 should invoke tropes, metaphors, poetry, mu- sic, and all the fine arts to my assis- tance. I wrote several sonnets to her eye-brow, a long elegy on the death of her kitten, and bewailed in true elegiac the bloody catastrophe of a prick of ner little finger, I can safely say I then thought my time most nobly employed : a single smile was a rich compensation for the loss of several nights sleep.
