To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Before doing so, however, I must see my Natalie oncemore. I stepped up to the coffin. Natalie lay there in her nun'sgarments, a crucifix upon her breast, and a veil surrounding her face, which, to my inexpressible astonishment and horror, I now saw wascovered with a mask.
I was at first unable to explain this singular circumstance, but thenit occurred to me that her lovely features had been said to be muchdistorted in death, and doubtless her friends had taken this means ofconcealing them from ...the gaze of vulgar curiosity. I would see herthough, I thought; I would kiss those lips, once so warm andlove-breathing, now so pale and chilled. The better if, in herdeath-like embrace, I found an end to my life and suffering. Istretched out my hand to detach the mask, which was by no meansunpleasing in its appearance. It reminded me of the one spoken of bymy father in one of his letters; and as I stood looking at it, Ilittle by little persuaded myself it must be the same. The lips curvedinto a mournful smile, an attractive expression on the features; onlythe sockets for the eyes were empty, and through them shone the glazedorbs of the departed.
