To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The AIR is fresh and lightall day, though the sun is tremendous; but one has no languidfeeling or desire to lie about, unless one is sleepy. We dine attwo or half-past, and at four or five the heat is over, and oneputs on a shawl to go out in the afternoon breeze. The nights arecool, so as always to want one blanket. I still have a cough; butit is getting better, so that I can always eat and walk. Mine hosthas just bought a horse, which he is going to try with a petticoatto-day, and if he goes ...well I shall ride.
I like this inn-life, because I see all the 'neighbourhood'--farmers and traders--whom I like far better than the GENTILITY ofCapetown. I have given letters to England to a 'boer', who is'going home', i. E. To Europe, the FIRST OF HIS RACE SINCE THEREVOCATION OF THE EDICT OF NANTES, when some poor refugees wereinveigled hither by the Dutch Governor, and oppressed worse thanthe Hottentots. M. De Villiers has had no education AT ALL, andhas worked, and traded, and farmed, --but the breed tells; he is apure and thorough Frenchman, unable to speak a word of French.
