To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Persians, I have already noticed, generally relieve themselves by preference in brooks, in which a little lower down they drink and wash. From here we have a wonderful fellow on the box beside the driver, singing lustily all the way; Said calls him our "footman. " The minarets of Isfahan soon come into sight, then we pass between fields with curious round towers dove-cotes I believe. Men are at work, dressed in pomegranate robes as well as the sap-green ones frequent since Tihran, all of them n...ew for the Nawriiz or New Year. Entering the town is a perilous affair; the road rises on embankments to dilapidated bridges, where we nearly fall through or upset ; then passes through deep pools of water, and under gateways of dried clay, so low the luggage must first be removed; our "footman" yelling all the while more loudly than any motor-horn in Europe. When actually within the town proper, men and women fly to right and left of us in the narrow streets, gathering up their belongings as best they can.
