To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
297 steps to one side, and mocks him with the empty cloak. Another and another charge, and then the thing grows serious. You see the cloak advanced in the left hand, and just behind it, pointed carefully, the formidable blade is glittering. The bull sweeps on, and when the cloak is lifted, it may be he is only wounded the sword stuck slightly in his neck or shoulder, and falling or flying out as he leaps wildly in his agony. Perhaps it has passed in between the shoulders, and has hurt the lungs.... A few more leaps then, and there is a staggering a bound or two and with the blood-streams rushing from his nostrils he falls dead. Perhaps the dexterous blow has pierced the heart, and then he falls without the sign of blood. If he but falls and lingers, one of the chulos comes up, stealthily, behind, and drives the sword home to the hilt, or cleaves the spine with a short dagger. In a moment, then, you hear the tinkling of the bells, and there comes in a team of mules decked gaudily. By turns they drag out the dead hero and the horses he has slain ; a servant covers, with fresh dirt or saw-dust, all the traces of the fray ; the ring is cleared again; the picadores are^once more in their places; the trumpet sounds, and then, amid the shoutings of the more and more excited crowd, another bull comes out, to take his turn at slaughtering and being slaughtered.
