To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Enslaved by the fascination of the dancer, I now frequented the opera with a regularity that the unassisted attractions of music and ' spectacle' could never have brought out. Hillingdon, Lavish, and myself were fortunate enough to possess the best box in the house, as we considered it — that which com- manded the nearest view of the dresses and features of the performers — enabled us to catch every one of the 'asides' not intended for the amusement of the public ; and, above all, possessed a c...ommunication with that region of chalk, machinery, and reality denominated 'behind the scenes/ Here would we assemble to pronounce our opinion on tenor, soprano, contralto, and baritone; to discuss the efficiency of a chorus, or the harmony of a scene. I for one could never even whistle an air correctly ; Hillingdon, who was by way of being an amateur, made fearful havoc of Bellini on the violoncello ; and Jack Lavish, if unfortunately he arrived before the concluding scene of the opera, could hardly keep his eyes open, till roused by the attractions of the ballet.
