To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sindhu, as my learned friend, Professor Sayce, informed me, occurs in cuneiform texts as far back as 3000 B. C. As the name of some textile fabric. In Sanskrit saindhava would mean what grows on the Sindhu or the Indus \ and would therefore be a very good name for cotton or linen. But so long as this word stands alone, it would not be safe to build any conclusions on it as to an ancient trade between India and Babylon. For the present, therefore, we must continue to look upon China and India as... perfectly isolated countries during the period of which we are here speaking. But though in the eyes of the historian the ancient literature of these . Two countries loses in consequence much of its interest, it acquires a new and peculiar interest of its own in the eyes of the philosopher. It is entirely home-grown and home- spun, and thus forms an independent parallel to all the other literatures of the world. It has been truly said that the religion and the philosophy of India came upon us like meteors from a distant planet, perfectly independent in their origin and in their character.
