To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The general panic that had seized the men we were continually meeting, was contagious ; it ran like wild fire ; and, notwithstand- ing every effort against its progress, it was presently discovered in our own camp ; some hesitated and stole back, privately ; Appendix 187 others saw the necessity of returning to convince their friends that they were still alive, in too strong a light to be resisted ; whilst many, in truth, who have nothing to thank but the fear of shame, for the credit of intrep...idity, came on, though their hearts, for some hours, made part of the deserting company. In this situation of affairs, some few, of genuine courage and undaunted resolution, served to inspire the rest ; by help of whose example, assisted by a little pride and some ostentation, we made a shift to march on with all the appearance of gallantry, and, cavalier like, treated every insinuation of danger with the utmost con- tempt. It soon became hibitual ; and those who started in the morning, with pale faces and apparent trepidation, could lie down and sleep at night in great quiet, not even possessed of fear enough to get the better of indolence.
