To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The physician attended the King from his retiring to bed till midnightwas past, and twice administered medicine to him during that period, always previously observing the quarter of heaven occupied by thefull moon, whose influences he declared to be most sovereign, or mostbaleful, to the effect of his drugs. It was three hours after midnightere El Hakim withdrew from the royal tent, to one which had been pitchedfor himself and his retinue. In his way thither he visited the tent ofSir Kenneth of... the Leopard, in order to see the condition of his firstpatient in the Christian camp, old Strauchan, as the knight's esquirewas named. Inquiring there for Sir Kenneth himself, El Hakim learnedon what duty he was employed, and probably this information led himto Saint George's Mount, where he found him whom he sought in thedisastrous circumstances alluded to in the last chapter.
It was about the hour of sunrise, when a slow, armed tread was heardapproaching the King's pavilion; and ere De Vaux, who slumbered besidehis master's bed as lightly as ever sleep sat upon the eyes of awatch-dog, had time to do more than arise and say, "Who comes?" theKnight of the Leopard entered the tent, with a deep and devoted gloomseated upon his manly features.
