To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the other side, towards the eastward, the ramparts were discernible, running in a straight line of some length, until they suddenly turned inwards at a right angle and were concealed from further obser- vation by the walls of a distant palace and the pine trees of a public garden. The only living figure discernible near this lonely spot, was that of a sentinel, who occasionally passed over the ramparts above, which — situated as they were between two stations of soldiery, one at the Pincian ...Gate and the other where the wall made the angle already ANTONINA. 81 described — were untenanted, save by the guard within the limits of whose watch they happened to be placed. Here, for a short space of time, the Pagan rested his wearied frame, and aroused him- self insensibly from the enthralling meditations which had hitherto blinded him to the troubled aspect of the world around him. He now for the first time heard on all sides dis- tinctly, the confused noises which still rose from every quarter of Rome.
