To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There are horns also at marriage festivities, but of different shape and note. Scattered over the country, are pensioned or dismissed band-men, for- merly attached to European corps who are not unfre- quently present at funerals, and amid the clangor of cymbal and horn, you distinguish the notes of the " Dead March in Saul, " upon the drum and fife. A strange medley which provokes a smile though in the presence of death. Every pagoda of any note, has a band of musicians ; who are obliged to att...end at the temple twice every day, to make it ring with their discordant sounds and inharmonious airs. A portion of the musicians execute the vocal part, and sing hymns in honor of the gods. The singing of native Hindoos is much in the style of a chant — with prolongation of the sound at the end of each line. I am desirous of illustating this topic of Hindoo songs, but find a difficulty in selecting a piece entirely appropriate. I have concluded, however, to insert parts of a poem which was written by a re- ligious mendicant, when renouncing Hindooism and embracing Christianity.
