To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At my side the peasant who had turned the wheel of bells to punctuate the mass, scrambled hastily across benches to get his banner, shaking over his head the while the white processional sack of his confraternity. Presently through the dark Corso passed the image of the baby Jesus carried by the arciprete and lighted by flaring torches. Before it marched the "concerti musicali, " and behind it three men played bag-pipes. Then came men costumed as Magi and shepherds, and after these the people o...f Taormina, a black mass of muffled figures, cloaked and shawled as if the mercury had said zero, instead of perhaps fifty-five degrees. After the masses and the procession, when the fast of the vigilia is over, is the time to eat one's CHRISTMAS 177 cake, with more substantial food, unless sleep seems preferable. It is at Caltagirone that one should really pass Christmas, where the Bambino cult requires a liv- ing Bambineddu. The little Jesus is chosen by lot from among poor boys about three years old, pre- sented for alms by their parents; but the lot never falls, I am told, on any except a beautiful blond.
