To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Frederick then wisely withdrew his hand from the tiller of Creation's harmonious work, where he thought he might meddle with impunity. He counter- manded his orders, and was, moreover, obliged to import Sparrows, which were now preserved. " Now-a-days, war is no longer waged against the Sparrow, though a number of other highly useful birds are still subject to persecution. Without any reflection we destroy their breeding-places by wholesale ; and the birds themselves are pursued, harried, and... destroyed, in the most wicked manner possible, thus driving them to emigrate to happier regions. The result of such conduct is only too easily to be seen in the works written by the forest authorities, or may, without difficulty, be recognized in many other ways. Plagues of caterpillars are more frequent, and their devastations are more felt ; mice are the victors in their wars with us. Why ? Because both had ruthless enemies, which we have despised, and either destroyed or banished ; and this brings its own punishment.
