To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

These aggregations of humanity havenot existed long enough to seem to belong to the nature of things. Itis exciting to be invited to "see Seattle grow, " but the exhibitiondoes not yield a "harvest of a quiet eye. " If Seattle should cease togrow while we are looking at it, what should we do then?
But with Rome it is different. Here is a city which has been so longin existence that we look upon it as a part of nature. It is notaccidental or artificial. Nothing can happen to it but what hashappe
...ned already. It has been burned with fire, it has been ravaged bythe sword, it has been ruined by luxury, it has been pillaged bybarbarians and left for dead. And here it is to-day the scene of eagerlife. Pagans, Christians, reformers, priests, artists, soldiers, honest workmen, idlers, philosophers, saints, were here centuries ago. They are here to-day. They have continuously opposed each other, andyet no species has been exterminated. Their combined activities makethe city.
When one comes to feel the stirring of primal sympathies for themanifold life of the city, as he does for the manifold life of thewoods, Rome ceases to be distracting.
