To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some of those in Iceland are forty feet deep. Their beauty, according to Bun sen, is indescribable. Over the surface curls a light vapor : the water is of the purest azure, and tints with its lovely hue the fantastic incrustations on the cistern wails; while at the bottom is often seen the mouth of thy once mighty geyser. There are in Iceland vast, but now extinct, geyser-operations. Mounds are observed whose shafts are filled with rubbish, the water having forced a passage underneath, and reti...red to other scenes of action. We have, in fact, the geyser in its youth, manhood, old age, and death, here presented to us, — in its youth as a simple thermal spring, in its manhood as the eruptive column, in its old age as the tranquil laug, while its death is recorded by the ruined shaft and mound which testify the fact of its once active existence." CHAPTER VII. Adieu to the Geysers.— A Horse Auction. — Ruinous Sales. — Coasting [eeland. — TheEyJa Fiord. — Slok. — Our Danish Friend.
