To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Most of these animals are blindfolded, a contriv- ance that, no doubt, inspires them to pace round and round their weary circle with becoming perseverance, inasmuch as it tends to keep them in perpetual fear of the dusky driver beneath the shade. People too poor, or with holdings too small, to justify the em- ployment of oxen in pumping water, raise it from the ditches them- selves, with buckets at the end of long well-sweeps ; in some local- ities one can cast his eye over the landscape and se...e scores of these rude sweeps continually rising and falling, rising and falling. A few windmills are also used for pumping, but the wind is a fickle thing to depend on, and his utter dependence on the water supply makes the Egyptian agriculturist unwilling to run such risks. Steam-engines, both stationary and portable, are observed at frequent intervals. Both the engines and the coal for fuel have to be imported from England ; but they evidently pump enough water to repay the outlay, otherwise there would not be so many of them in use.
