To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When night came on, Rosetta was very much alarmed, and said to her dog, " Dear Fretillon ! pray keep barking, for fear the fishes should eat us up. " So he barked all night long; and when morning broke, the princess' bed was not very far from the shore. Now there happened to dwell thereabouts a good old man, who lived by himself in a little cottage. He was very poor, and did not care for the things of this world. When he heard Fretillon bark, there being no dogs in those parts, he thought that ...some travellers had lost their way, and went out kindly to direct them. Suddenly he perceived the Princess floating on the sea, who, stretching her arms towards him, cried, " Good old man, save me, I pray you, or I shall perish. " When he heard her speak so sadly, he pitied her misfortune, and fetching a long boat-hook, succeeded in dragging the bed to land. Rosetta and Fretillon were very glad to be once more on dry ground ; the Princess was very thankful to the good man, and wrapping herself in a blanket, barefooted as she was, she entered his cottage, where he lighted a little fire of dry straw, and took out of his chest a woman's gown, with shoes and stock- ings, in which Rosetta dressed herself; clad thus, as a poor peasant girl, she was as beautiful as the day, and Fretillon danced round her for her amusement.
