To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
283 Flowers and foliage, delicate and fairy-like, such as none ever moulded save the Moor, are scattered over all, with a prodigality of wealth which only Arab story-tellers could describe. Then, under a grand horse-shoe arch, coated with gold and flashing colors, surrounded by gay arabesques, and quaint inscriptions which, they say, are Cufic, you enter the sanctum sanctorum, a miracle of art and architecture. It is an octagon, encrusted with rich, polished marbles, and on twelve columns of th...e same bright hues, with capitals and bases highly gilded, it supports a precious shell, as white as alabaster, wrought from a single piece of marble, and yet eighteen feet across ! With all its massiveness, it seems so delicate and pure, that you might half believe it had been found on the sea-shore a mermaid's palace thrown up by an earthquake, or a chariot of state new-made for Amphitrite ! The marble pavement under it is worn quite visibly ; the faithful in old Paynim times believing that they walked to Paradise, by marching barefoot round this holy place.
