To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The colonel wears adark-brown uniform profusely trimmed with braid, a Kashgarian militaryhat, and English army shoes. In matters pertaining to his wardrobe it isvery evident that he has profited to no small extent by Afghanistan beingadjacent territory to British India; but his semi-civilized ambition hasnot yet soared into the aesthetic realm of socks; doubtless he considersNorthampton-made shoes sufficiently luxurious without the addition ofsocks. The mission of these two officers is apparent...ly to prepare me graduallyfor the intelligence that I am to be taken back to Herat. So skillfullyand diplomatically does the old khan in the cerulean gown acquit himselfof this mission, that I thoroughly understand what is to be mydisposition, although Herat is never mentioned. He talks volubly aboutthe Ameer, the Wali, the Padishah, the dowleh, Cabool, Allah, and a hostof other subjects, out of which I readily evolve my fate; but, as yet, hebreathes nothing but diplomatic hints, and these are clothed in the mostpleasant and reassuring smiles, and given in tones of paternalsolicitude.
