To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The boats are large, TOWN OF KILLARNEY. 45 convenient, and in excellent order, but without cushions. The greatest inconvenience, however, charge- able upon Killarney, is the distance of the town from the Lake. It was not possible to have fixed, in all the neighbourhood, upon a worse situation for the site of a village ; the backs of the houses are turned towards the Lake, the view of which is totally excluded by Lord Kenraare's woods, and but for the supply yielded by a few wells, there would n...ot be any fresh water in the village, al- though there are rivers at a short distance on every side. It is very unpleasant to have a mile of uninteresting road to pass every morning before reaching Ross bay ; but this is actual plea- sure compared with the annoyance of having the same road to return at night, after the fatigue of ten or twelve hours exercise, and, probably, drenched by the breakers, if the weather should be stormy. Here, again, the English lakes have the advantage in accommodation for travellers, which he who has visited Coniston Head, the Ferry House, or Lowood upon Windermere, will acknowledge.
