To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The draught of water served to freshen up my wits, for seeing that what little brackish- ness there was in the contents of the cask must have been caused by the salt water draining into the open bung-hole when the seas broke over the hull, I fashioned the bundle of rope-yarns into two hard bunches, with which I plugged the bung-holes, and I then went into the galley to seek for some- thing to eat. There was a kind of dresser facing the oven and coppers, containing four drawers, and over the dre...sser were two shelves, in which were some black-handled knives and forks, a bottle of oil, another of vinegar, a number of tin and china plates, and other such matters, all jumbled together in great confusion. In the first drawer T found a rude, ancient Bible, and some books and papers, which I might have examined but that I was as hungry as I had been thirsty before, and these were not the things I desired to come at. In the second drawer I found a canvas bag containing eight good sea-biscuits, a small quantity of flour loose in a tin dish, a whole bunch of candles, and in another dish THE LONELY DEEP.
