To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We hope and trust, if it does not break his neck, it will teach him to fly in a safe and proper manner hereafter, or else remain below, which latter is the course we would recommend to him. We pass over the dubious question of the propriety of impending 'Hhunder" which he uses instead of thunder- cloud, because he wanted to use cloud again in the next line, and proceed to remark that it is a well established fact that "ground-lightning" makes no noise, and there- fore it is a blunder to represe...nt Webster as thundering "ground-lightning" into a cloud. Many a man has seen a thunderbolt dart downward to the earth, and heard the deafening thunder ; but who has ever seen a thunderbolt go lip into a cloud ^lih. any similar explosion? — and if they have seen it, did it seem to hurt the cloud ? The fact is, to treat this matter good-naturedly, it wont do at all, Theodore. It is contrary to nature. Yes, contrary to the classic writers also. You have read the classical 56 dictionary, Mr. Parker, — you know some Latin and some Greek" You are aware that Jupiter, Olympian Jupiter, had a seat up aloft, and when he was in ill humor used to discharge his wrath and his thunderbolts together upon mortals below; while deep in the bowels of mother earth old Yulcan had set up his forge, Mount J^tna was his chimney, and there he forged the thunderbolts for the Father of gods and men : but do you think that Jupiter would ever have tolerated the carelessness of having the new thunderbolts shot up into the Olympian regions, with Ohjmpian noise and "power?" No, no.
