To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
THE STOEY OF YPEES 73 The first day the enemy refrained from using other shells against the town, but simply used the big 42-centimetre siege- guns. Every twenty minutes the sky would be filled with the roaring of the wings of the angel of death, the shell would fall, and the astonished soldiery in the trenches round the town would mark the vast column of smoke from the explosion.
These smoke columns were extraordinary, a phenomenon entirely different from all previous effects of shelling. With... the burst they shot up to some two hundred feet, a solid greasy column of black and yellow smoke. Above them and about their edge the eye could distinguish a fringe of frag- ments — bricks, stones, fabric of houses, and possibly of men. These solid bodies hung poised for an instant, seemingly motionless at the extremity of their flight, then fell back again into the fog of destruction whence they had ascended. The smoke 74 THE STOEY OF YPEES clouds hung for a while immobile in the air, then grew larger, bellied out and swollen like vast funeral plumes.
