To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The ex pence of these illu- minations is very great: these were not considered as very extraordinary; but the fire-works and illuminations in tlie Thuille- 310 ries and Champs Elyse^s when Louis the Sixteenth accepted the constitution, are said to have cost fifty thousand pounds.
I have frequently visited the Bastile, or rather the ruins of that celebrated fortress, and the buildings erected for various pur- poses from its dilapidations; for so complete was the demolition of that ancient struct...ure, that hardly one stone remained upon ano- ther: the very name of this prison spread terror throughout the whole dominion of France, and too many unhappy beings of all descriptions have been plunged into its dungeons on suspicion of crimes which they never committed: but however crowded it might have been under the dissolute period when Madame de Pompadour ruled with uncontrolled authority over Louis the Fif- teenth, during the mild reign of his successor the cells were rarely inhabited. One unfor- tunate wretch, a victim to the former reign, had been condemned to solitude and dark- ness for five and thirty years, who indeed 311 too perfectly realized the pathetic picture of Sterne's captive.
