To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The finest and most active particles which ascend in the Torrid Zone, when they have attained a certain height in the atmosphere, are forced by the action of the rays of the sun to retreat and to accumulate in those regions which are then turned away from the sun and buried in a long night; and they make up to the inhabitants of the Arctic Zone for the absence of the great light which sends to them even at that distance the effects of its warmth. The same force of the rays of the sun, which mak...es the Aurora Borealis, would produce a vapour head with a tail, if the finest and most volatile particles were to be found as abundantly on the earth as on the comets.
