To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is full of fine and gloomy poetry (in prose), which is of the very same style with Lord Byron's. It is still fuller of the light Digitized by Google 'ANASTASIUS: 85 derisive mockery — the tossing about of all good feeling so gibing and so Voltaire-ish, which no one could or would do but Lord Byron.
