To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Windermere, a fine expanse of water with its ornamented banks; the town of Hawkshead and its environs, with Blelham Tarn, and the irregu- larly shaped Esthwaite Water; Loughrigg with its Tarn, and Langdale with Elterwater ; the beautiful vales of Grasmere and Rydal, with their two lakes; and the town and highly embellished neighbourhood of Ambleside are the lowland ob- jects. The circumscribing mountains of Coniston Langdale, Grasmere, Rydal, Ambleside and Troutbeck, are at such eligible distan...ces, that not only their elegantly formed outlines, but also their varied surface of rock and verdure, can clearly be distinguished. Small portions of Coniston Water and Thirlmere are just sufficient to shew the places of those two lakes. The mountain Skiddaw seen over Dunmail Raise, and the top of Ingleborough in the direction of the Low Wood Inn, are ex- traneous objects beyond the common bounds of the panorama. 72 BEARINGS AND HEIGHTS.
