To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Now I could not have described that great glittering white mass of foolish orientalism in ten lines if I had tried ever so hard ; the lions in that majestic court would have stood up and howled if I had dared to dismiss the whole thing as a "quadrangle." That man writer had seen Granada, I swear, or he couldn't have done it either. But to-day is the day of small things for the Bey of Tunis, who is of so litde importance to the world generally, and even to Tunis, that he is not worth eating. For... twenty years no Bey of Tunis has ever spent a night in his capital, but before the French occupation they used the Dar-el-Bey, near the Kasba, as the official i^nnter palace. That is why, I suppose, the richest Tunisians (who are mosdy Mamelukes and Turks) have built their vulgar modern houses on the high ground of the Kasba, for the Mamelukes, who are mongrel Greeks and Syrians and are of slave origin, have always held the 1 68 By the Waters of Carthage well-paid Government posts in Tunis, and squeezed the people so effectually that their riches are sure and lasting.
