To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
James Montgomery for his scepticism as to the authenticity of the Confessions, and promising a Third Part in time. Meanwhile, in the same number, the public had from the new author, signing himself " Grasmeriensis Teutonizans, " a paper On tJie Writings of John Paid Frederick Richter, including a translated specimen. Then, for a whole year, there was a break, the promise of a con- tinuation of the Confessions hanging unfulfilled, and the readers of the magazine having to content themselves with... other fare, the best morsel of which was Charles Lamb's "Dissertation on Eoast Pig" in September 1822. In that year, 1822, however, Messrs. Taylor and Hessey had the pleasure of bringing out the Confessions of an English Opium-Eater in a separate little duodecimo volume, the author's name still suppressed. They would fain still have had the promised continuation in their magazine, and apologized to their readers for not having been able to fulfil that engagement. By way of compensation, they were glad to publish, through the years 1823 and 1824, everything that De Quincey chose to give them, taking care that it should bo known that the articles were by " The English Opium-Eater.
