To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But in many places, even when the rain did come, it brought little or no relief, for men were too feeble to put the seed into the ground ; ploughs were no use without animals to draw them ; and sometimes whole families had died out entirely, leaving the land without owners, and the villages without inhabitants. In one hamlet no fewer than seventeen families had become extinct, and out of fourteen hundred (Chinese) acres belonging to the village, only a little over a hundred could be put under c...ultivation when the rain came. For the rest the people had no seed, and no strength to sow it even if it had been given them. The rain, however, saved the province. Wealthier people put in their crops, and the poor had more wild herbs, grass, and weeds to mix with the bark and roots they were able to gather. They were a long way still from the edge of the wood ; but the worst of the famine was over ; and gradually hope returned to many a broken spirit. XIV FIRST-FRUITS First impressions are not always best, and a wise man will be prepared to modify them.
