To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
One of his nobles then said : " It is well. " " Can you not speak for yourself, " asked Pizarro, turning to the Inca, " and tell me what is your desire ? " At this the proud native smiled faintly, and replied, through an interpreter: " I am keeping a fast which will end to-morrow morn- ing. I will then visit you. In the meantime, pray occupy the public buildings on the square and no other, until I order what shall be done. " Pizarro bowed. At that moment one of his sol- diers, who was mounted u...pon a fiery steed, touched it with his spurs and galloped away. Whirling around, he dashed back through the crowd of natives and drew rein before the immobile Atahuallpa, who never, for an instant, lost his composure. Several of his soldiers, however, shrank back in manifest terror as this strange creature passed by, for such a wonderful animal had never been seen before in this country. The Spaniards now left, and, after they had departed, all of those who had shown fear of the galloping horse in the presence of the strangers, were put to death by order of the Inca.
