To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Be- hold me, then, starting out with knapsack on my back and long alpenstock in hand, just like the pictures of Bunyan's pilgrim faring forth on his eventful journey. For awhile all went well. But soon the knapsack grew intolerably heavy, and the sun very hot, and I was glad to engage a guide to carry my pack over the mountains to Grindelwald. (This is a method I would strongly re- commend. It leaves one free to enjoy the scenery, instead of toiling like a pack-horse. ) A faithful, obliging, in...tel- ligent fellow my guide proved. Our conversation was rather limited, for he could not speak a word of English, and I very little German, But I made the most of that little, and it is surprising how far a very little will go when one has no other medium of intercourse. The path winds steeply up some 2, 000 feet to the Falls of the Reichenbach. It is only a bridle-path no carriages can pass ; the snowy Reichenbach leaps with headlong plunge down the mountain side, then strikes the rock, rebounds, and is lost in the deep and narrow gorge.
