To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There was a long procession of the several trades, each bringing some appropriate contribution ; the military and civil bands playing all the while as only a German band can play. Before the statue there was a screen of boards completely hiding it from view; when, after a burst of delicious music from the band, at a signal given, the screen fell down and the beautiful creation of genius and taste stood before the multitude, who were silent in admiration perhaps half a minute before they broke o...ut in thundering cheers. Then a short oration was pronounced, and several hundred men's voices sang, accompanied by the band, an ode in honor of the oc- casion. The whole affair lasted three hours, but was well worUi the fktigue it cost me. The figure represents a young maiden, draped in a bear skin, with a wreath of vine leaves and wheat ears around her head, a sheathed sword in one hand and a wreath of victory held aloft in the other. Nowithstanding the immense size, the coun- tenance is lovely, youthful and mild ; perhaps the proportions of the form are a little too large, but the artist's design was to represent Bavaria strong.
