To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" The advantage which is gained by saving the time commonly lost in passing from one sort of work to another, is much greater than we should at first view be apt to imagine it. It is impos- sible to pass very quickly from one kind of work to another, that is carried on in a different place, and with quite different tools. A country weaver, who cultivates a small farm, must lose a good deal of time in passing from his loom to the field, and from the field to his loom. When the two trades can be ...carried on in the same work-house, the loss of time is no doubt much less. It is even in this case, however, very considerable. A man com- monly saunters a little in turning his hand from one sort of employment to another. When he first begins the new work he is seldom very keen and hearty ; his mind, as they say, does not go it, and for some time he rather trifles than applies to good purpose. The habit of sauntering and of indolent careless application, which is naturally, or rather necessarily, acquired by every country workman who is obliged to change his work and his tools every half-hour, and to apply his hand in twenty different ways almost every day of his life, renders him almost always slothful and lazy, and incapable of any vigorous application even on the most pressing occasions.
