To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She knew that her monastery was very old, and that the memory of St. Bose was attached to it. Santa Clara, the "Concepcion," the convent of Trin- itarian nuns, and others, carry you back to the old vice-royal dayB. The Carmelite monastery is about two hundred and fifty years old. The sister who spoke to me through the "turn" possessed a delightful and refined voice; but I cannot say the same of the "Madre" who saw me behind the grating in the little parlor. The convent of Nazarene nuns was foun...ded some time in the eighteenth century by some holy soul. This order is of Peruvian origin. Invariably, a gloomy vestibule, open to the street, is the only part of the convent you can enter, unless you succeed in conmiunicating with the interior, if you can find a bell, or by knocking, when you may be admitted to the parlor. Generally a spiritual text is painted in large letters on the wall. A very interesting and historical chapel beyond the Bimac is that of Our Lady of Copacabana. Copaca- bana is the national shrine of Peru and Bolivia, situ- ated on the shores of Lake Titicaca.
