To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Look at one with stalwart arm, and with the best weapons. Every advantage is his of quick eye, strong hmb, and the protection which skill in training and all the science of defence and attack can give. Beneath him hes his prostrate foe, an imbecile though stubborn cripple, subject to dizziness, withered in the arm, and partly blind. He has been prostrated by the vigorous blows of his antagonist, who now with foot upon his breast, commands him to sue for peace. He will not confess that he is con...quered. " Consent that I shall take from you all I wish, and I will let you go," cries out the strong man. " Never will 1 consent," says the other. Then the strong man proceeds to lop off a hmb, and again cries out, " consent." " Never," is the answer. " Then," he exclaims, " 1 shall proceed to attack your vital parts, and by slow degrees, shall exhaust your life." " Well, be it so, extinction is better than dishonor." The glory to be acquired in such a contest, is the glory of our arms in this present war.
