To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
807 had an easy, gentlemanly appearance; and, had it not been for bis. few attendants, I should have taken him for the captain of a merchant-ship amusing himself in the field. The palace at Versailles, and its gardens, are an ornament to the fistce of the ^obe. It was dirty weather* I wore boots, and, conse- quently, was i»*ohibited from visiting the galleries. I was in company with our Mr. Barclay, Colonel Franks of the American army, a young Virginian, and an English sea-officer. Franks was b...ooted too ; but, though honest Tom Barclay was not, he had no bag on, and they were dismissed also : so that boots on and bags off are sad recommendations at the court of Versailles. ^^If the two Fitzhughs remain in town a week longer, you shall have a week's detail. They dine with me to-day in my chamber, together with our worthy Consul Barclay, and that lump of univer- sality. Colonel Franks. But such a set of money- less rascals have never appeared since the epoch of the happy villain Falstaff.
