To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But her words such a pleasure convey, So much I her accents adore Let her speak, and whatever she say, Methinks 1 should love her the more.** There is a rhythmic prettiness in this ; but it is the prettiness of a lover in his teens, and not the kind we look for from a man who stood five feet eleven in his stockings, and wore his own gray hair. Strangely enough, Shenstone had the physique of a ploughman or a prize-fighter, and with it the fine, sensitive brain of a woman ; a Greek in his refinem...ents, and a Greek in indolence. I hope he gets on better in the othei ■Olid than he ever did in this.
SEVENTH DAT.
John AlercromMe.
T BEGIN my day with a canny Scot, who was born -■- in Edinburgh in 1726, near which city his father conducted a large market-garden. As a youth, aged nineteen, John Abercrombie (for it is of him I make companion this wet morning) saw the Battle of Preston Pans, at which the Highlanders pushed the King's-men in defeat to the very foot of his father's garden-walL Whether he shouldered a matchlock for the Castle-peo- ple and Sir John Cope, or merely looked over from the kale-beds at the victorious fighters for Prince Charley I cannot learn ; it is certain only that before CuUoden, and the final discomfiture of the Pretender, he avowed himself a good King's-man, and in many an after-year, over his pipe and his ale, told the story of the battle which surged wrathfully around his father's kale-garden by Preston Pans.
