To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The weight, too, was given not as the deer stood, but after he had been gralloched. But if the pastures are fine, the ground also is in all other respects the most favourable that can be imagined for a forest. Mountains of various altitude, open sunny corries, deep glens and ravines, holes for solitary harts to hide in, and numerous rolling pools, burns also and rivers, and large pine woods to shelter them during the inclement season. The two highest mountains in the forest are Ben-y-gloe and B...en Dairg, or the Red Mountain. Ben-y-gloe is of vast magnitude, and comprehends a little territory within itself, stretching its huge limbs far and wide. It is computed to be twenty-tour Scotch miles in circumference, and it con- tains twenty-four corries ; these corries are separated from each other by such high ridges, that a person standing in one of them could not hear a shot fired in the next. The highest point of the mountain is Cairn-na-gowr, or the Goat's Hill, which is 3725 feet above the level of the sea.
