To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It was, of course, a very rude performance to break into the progress of a daimyo, as the Englishman Richardson learned two years later to his sorrow at Namamugi, near Kanagawa. It would seem that the rush of Ii"s retainers to avenge this affront left his palanquin comparatively unprotected, so that others of the assaulting party were able to reach the palanquin without much difficulty. The attacking party had easily divested themselves of the straw rain-coats or other means with which they had... been disguised to look like innocent bystanders.
But li's retainers, taken so completely by surprise, were, some of them, slain before they could divert themselves of the coverings with which they had protected their armor and weapons from the weather.
Consequently, the unarmed Lord of Plickone fell an easy victim to his assailants.
According to one report, the men who succeeded in reaching li first demanded of him an explanation of his conduct and engaged in a discussion with him on the right and wrong of his policy, and then assassinated him.
