To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Wisdom? True ; but what is wisdom ? The snail carries his house on his back; and the spider finds his on a twig, in a curled leaf, or under a log. I carry my swag like a snail, and find shelter like a spider and the ant. The man with the sweet-smelling land of loam fol- lows the tail of a plough . .. . Why does a man sweat for the things he does not need? Ah! it is all a web, and life is the spinner, with man for the thread. There is nothing simple or single save death. There only do we stand a...t the gate and enter in alone. As for me, what have I gathered, for all my wandering but a storing of recollections? An easy gathering, lifted as the wind lifts leaves and scents! It is the man who sweats that makes the magnifying glass and the telescope, it is he that shivers who measures the stars. Of us others, when I am dead what do I leave? 84 HOUND OF THE ROAD I am dead; I am gone. Earth bears no mark of me save a little ash where I, camp-fire, have been for an hour; life has no place of memory of me, not even of all that I felt in wonder.
