To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I took pains to get between Head and Gayangos at dinner, because I wanted to know them both. The Spaniard about thirty-two years old, and talking English like a native, almost I found quite pleasant, and full of pleasant knowl edge in Spanish and Arabic, and with the kindliest good- will towards " Ferdinand and Isabella. " Sir Francis Head, on the contrary, a little short man, with quick, decisive motions, and his reddish hair cut very close to his head, I found somewhat stiff ; but the difficu...lty, as I soon discovered, was, that he did not feel at his ease, knowing that he is out of all favor with the present administration, two or three of the leading members of which were at table. However, Lord Holland s genial good-nature in time thawed all reserve, and before we followed the ladies into the grand old library the conversation was as free as possible. Sir Francis, however, I observed, made his escape early. The rest of us stayed very late, gossiping and talking over odd books, old Spanish manuscripts, and the awkward state of parties in England.
