To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Before the eyes is a lace-work, through which a woman can see her way, but not even a glance of her eye can be seen. This street costume is made of only two or three fabrics, either blue, black, or barred ; so that among the many uniformly dressed women a man could not recognize any one of his own wives. As the women ghde through the streets they lift their veils to get a fresh breeze or to see the pitfalls, but if a man appears unexpectedly the veils go down with a jerk. If a lady of high degr...ee is riding through the streets an attendant goes before and commands, " Men, turn your eyes away! " Common mortals should not look upon the shadow of a princess. Even old hags who are washing clothes by the watercourses, and beating them upon the stones, attempt to arrange their veils and chudders so as to conceal their features. The wife of a Persian official who had been brought from Constantinople, and who was used to the freer ways of 'that city, went out in Tabriz in her foreign costume.
The mujtehid sent his servants to warn her to cease to do so or she would be beaten.
