To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Perhaps the pike were less persistently netted down than they might have been ; but the trout must have been all the heavier on that account ; and surely they were less shy than they have since become. We know that, wind and weather permitting, we used to make highly satis- factory baskets. And at the risk of being called dog- in-the-mangerish, we maintain that it was a pleasure to have the pick of the expanse before you. The whole circuit of the loch is classic ground, and you might steep your... soul in romantic associations while relaxing from your labours on the most exciting of the fishing-ground. Now you were within easy hail of the FISHING IN RIVER, STREAM, AND LOCH 173 old castle, on the very spot where the boat with muffled oars stole in under cover of the night to rescue Queen Mary and her ladies. There Roland Grasme or the little Douglas consigned the castle keys to the keep- ing of the kelpies ; and thence you looked across to the picturesque village, where the page, having broken away from the Chamberlain, met Seyton at the mounte- bank's, among the frolics of the fair.
