To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was again the bathing hour ; from time to time little girls came out of the houses and took de- light in swimming after us, their laughing faces, 76 The Exile like those of little sirens, rising above the water, close to the gondola.
VI Now we are far from the land, on the vast lagoon, and quite alone. In the distance, Venice appeared much lower, for domes and spires had regained their true proportions, rising, in mingled groups, high above the houses.
The maids of honour declared this to be... a suitable place to stop and open the Book of the Soul, which they had brought with as much ceremony as though it were the Tables of the Law. I now dreaded the reading that was to follow, as something vain and foolish.
The queen, however, still smiling serenely, replied that it was too soon, and that we must first lunch, like ordinary people out on a picnic. At a sign of her hand, the two gondolas follow- ing us and bearing the rest of the small court, drew up alongside the one in which we were seated, and Her Majesty, opening a luncheon basket, began to distribute our portions to each of us, playfully treating us as though we were The Exile 77 children.
