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

'Do you, sir, ' turning her head towards me, 'tell your friendthat I forgive him, and I pray to God to forgive him. Let him know howhappily I die, and that such as my own I wish to be his last hour. ' "With a smile of charming serenity overspreading her face, she expired.
"Oh, Lovelace, but I can write no more. " * * * * * Sir Charles Grandison "Sir Charles Grandison, and the Honourable Miss Byron, in a Series of Letters, " published in 1753, was the third and last of Samuel Richardson's novels
.... Like its predecessors, it is of enormous length (it first appeared in seven volumes) and is written in the form of a series of letters. The idea of the author was to "present to the public, in Sir Charles Grandison, the example of a man acting uniformly well through a variety of trying scenes, because all his actions are regulated by one steady principle--a man of religion and virtue, of liveliness and spirit, accomplished and agreeable, happy in himself and a blessing to others. " Such a portrait of "a man of true honour" provoked the highest enthusiasm in the eighteenth century; but to-day we have little patience for the faultless diction and exemplary conduct of Sir Charles, and, of the two, Miss Byron, the heroine, is by far the more interesting.
