To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Camille Mauclair in his little study, both lyric and penetrating, of Watteau, speaks of those celebrated fetes galantes as "tender, dazzling, and most deliciously aristocratic. " Ex- actly so, Beaucaire, that vivid, pastel-like sketch of a flashing episode in the life of a "small, fair gentle- man, " radiant, exquisite of heart, brilliant, auda- cious, winningly dignified, a French duke of the royal blood at Bath in the eighteenth century; who masquerades, for his private purposes, in this re- ...sort of white-satin-sheen fashion first as a "gamblist" barber, and then as the Due de Chateaurien, laugh- ing in his sleeve at the dull-witted Englishman who, incited by the Duke of Winterset's personal animos- Booth Tarkington 75 ity, tries to hunt him down as a laquais; who falls under the spell of "gold and snow and the blue sky of a lady's eye, " the Beauty of Bath, "bellissima, divine, glorieuse!" and who shows by his sword that he is one "born. " A tale, or something less than a tale, whose only, and complete, excuse for its being is the blitheness of its mood, the symmetry of its form, the iridescent color of its words, the swiftness of its action, and the tingling vitality of it, from start to finish; a thing of dainty wit all compact.
