To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
35 equivalent of the gap that during the winter takes its place. As the hedge is not ours, the summer beauty much more than compensates for the winter's blank, but our neighbour, the farmer, may probably hold another opinion. In the same way the honeysuckle, that looks so charming as it encircles the trees, plays sad havoc with the younger ones, for its long flexible branches bind with great power, and we have often seen young shoots deeply furrowed by them. The author already mentioned, we see..., commends the tufted vetch to the farmer as affording an excellent fodder for cattle ; and, on turning to other old authorities, we find that he is not singular in his estimation of its value. It is said to be hardy, durable, nutritious, and productive: but its deficiency in weight as a crop will always make it inferior to lucerne, though the latter is affirmed to be actually less nutritious. The tufted vetch will never prosper without support, and this fact makes it unsuitable for a field-crop ; the " purple tassels of the tangling vetch " will probably therefore continue to play their part as a graceful hedge tapestry, and in this fulfil their mission.
