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

Sir Isaac Newton dying in 1727, Sir Hans Sloane succeeded him as President of the Royal Society, retiring after fourteen years to the regret of the Committee. In 1712, Sir Hans Sloane purchased the Manor of Chelsea and with it the Physic Garden, which had taught him botany, and which he presented to the Apothecaries in 1722 but he continued to live and practise in Bloomsbury. It was not until 1742 that he ' moved with his vast collections to the Manor House in Chelsea.
His practice became large
... and fashionable, but every morning until 10 he saw patients gratuitously. He was a generous benefactor to many hospitals. He believed in the virtue of Peruvian bark, and invested the money he received for the Jamaica expedition in pur- chasing it, and has the credit of making that important medicine popular ; but he was cautious in the use of drugs, and like Sydenham, seems to have been successful chiefly from his own powers of observation at the bedside.
Sloane has been ridiculed for using in his practice an ointment of viper's fat, but that must have been only a small part of his treat- ment.
