To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
1 39 The butter-carts were packed up and re-harnessed.
The booths were covered and closed in, to linger another day. The Cheap-Johns hung lights round their vans, and shouted louder than ever, and gathered larger crowds. And people trooped in, ** half-price '* now, to the giantess and the menagerie, whose owners began to make money fast when the serious day's work was near its end.
Alas ! other places filled as well, too — the whisky- shops and the public-houses. They were brightly lit up, and ...they looked tempting and warm.
There were no workmen's clubs, nor coffee-palaces ; no such snug retreats for the temperate and well- disposed in the old town in those days; and the harvests gathered on such occasions by the whisky dealers was the chief objection to the "feein' market" on all sides.
At the door of one of these little public-houses just opposite the Clachnacuddin corner, at the foot of the Castle Wynd, was the recruiting sergeant — a gay and central figure, exciting lively interest this afternoon.
