To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Washington's work is ended, " LITERATURE IX THE MIDDLE STATES 117 Irving's mother is reported to have said, "and the child shall be named after him. " One anecdote of Irving's childhood impresses itself on our imagination. When he was barely out of petticoats, a Scotch servant of the family took him into a shop which Washington had just entered. " Please your honor, " she said, pointing to her little charge, " here's a bairn was named after you. " The President put his hand on the head of his... little namesake and gave him his bless- ing. " The touch, " says Mr. Charles Dudley Warner, " could not have been more efficacious, though it might have lingered longer, if he had known that he was propitiating his future biographer. "* Irving's early surroundings seem far from favorable to the development of genius. New York was then a pro- vincial town, inferior to either Philadelphia or Boston in size, importance, and culture. It had suffered severely from the British occupation during the Revo- lution, when nearly half the town had been burned.
