To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From this point of view one may look down into the pit on the left, and into Charybdis on the right, In front, but twenty or more feet above him, is a well-rounded arch, which is the termination of Calypso's Avenue, along which we pass and over the Covered Pit to get our best view of Seylla. There are two objects of interest beyond Reveller's Hall; these are all in the continuation of the avenue that now is called Pensico Avenue, along which we came to the pit. The first of these is Resonator H...all, where the avenue either crosses another avenue lower down or else passes above a dome in the strata below. Whatever the real explanation, the production of certain tones at this place comes back to us from below in volume increased a thousand fold, and rolls and reverberates along the secret galleries be- neath. Then comes Wild Hall, where the large rocks are strewn about in abandoned profusion, and among THE ROUTE OF PITS AND DOMES. 55 them we carefully wend our way. Next we come to the Grand Crossing, where once two great subterranean streams, at slightly different levels, flowed one above the other.
