To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Parisians were convinced that the shells were aimed malicionsly at hospitals and museums; and when a child happened to be blown to pieces their unspoken comments upon the Prussian savagery were bitter. Their faces said : '' Those barbarians cannot even spare our children I " They amused themselves by creating a market in shells, paying more for a live shell than a dead one, and modifying the tariff according to the snpply.
And as the cattle-market was empty, and the vegetable-market was emp...ty, and beasts no longer pastured on the grass of the parks, and the twenty-five million rats of the metropolis were too numerous to furnish interest to spectators, and the Bourse waF practically deserted, the traffic in shells sustained the starving mercantile instinct during a very dull period. But the effect on the nerves was deleterious. The nerves of everybody were like nothing but a raw wound. Violent anger would sipring up magically out of laughter, and blows out of caresses* This indirect consequence of the bombardment was particularly notice- able in the group of men under the balloon.
