To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Religion Dance. 47 for you are sure you never looked away, or even winked there are before you two lines advancing and receding as if practising a compounded reel and jig. Then you see a hollow square, a solid square, a wedge again, and so on, ad infinitum, while the old men stand up and trot time in their places, the honourable women watch everything from their prayer-mats between the old men and the fire, or dart in and out of the maze of dancers, proffering refreshments or carrying off empty... cups, and a shaman surrounded by anxious mothers of candidates is whirling like a top as he does his two-step and sings his yi-yi outside the circle, and opposite the honourable women, to insure success to the sons of the mothers aforesaid. Now and then the flying columns pause abruptly, and the drums are stilled, and so are the singers, though the feet of the dancers continue to keep time while some wise man drones an exhortation, or some penitent declares before Manito-ah and men what self-denial he will practise during the ensuing year, or some soloist chants the praises of the god.
