To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The following morning William Edwards, son of Edward, went with me down along the docks, where great and small ships were discharging the world's various commodities. Here we saw the great granite-bound dock of the Marquis of Bute, which had lately been opened with much pomp. This dock covers thirty-seven acres. The docks of Cardiff cover one hundred and thirty-four acres. Cardiff, after Liverpool, London and Glasgow, is perhaps the chief seaport of the British Isles. The population of the city... is estimated as high as one hundred and twenty thousand. I noticed many pleas- ant residences and fine stores in the place ; also a goodly number of churches and institutions of learning and of benevolence. I was surprised to hear nearly every one speaking English, and I am sure I have heard more Welsh spoken in Plymouth, Pa., in a given time than I heard in Cardiff. As we passed along Mr. Edwards said : " Here is the spot where a few days ago Lady Walker, sister of Lord Tredegar, was so injured in a runaway that she died yesterday." There is thirty-two feet difference between high tide and low tide here.
