To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Sisters of Charity at once became a power. Theydiscovered the value of costume. The district visitor, whom nobody hadpaid the smallest attention to in the common vestments of the world, became a sacred being as she donned the crape and hideous bonnet ofthe "Sister. " "The 'Mother Superior' took the place of the tyrant of another sex whohad hitherto claimed the submission of woman; but she was somethingmore to her 'children' than the husband or father whom they had leftin the world without. ...In all matters, ecclesiastical as well as civil, she claimed within her dominions to be supreme. The quasi-sacerdotaldignity, the pure religious ministration which ages have stolen fromher, was quietly resumed. She received confessions, she imposedpenances, she drew up offices of devotion. If the clergyman ofthe parish ventured an advice or suggestion, he was told that thesisterhood must preserve its own independence of action, and wassnubbed home again for his pains. The Mother Superior, in fact, soontowered into a greatness far beyond the reach of ordinary persons.
