To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Korea not being a land of machinery, it becomes necessary for a certain number of officials to tend these gates. They are Digitized by Google Korean Architecture. i8i not called gate-keepers, but are officers, rather important officers, if I remember, of the Korean army. Now, an army officer, all the world over, does not mind where he lies, what he eats, or how he suffers — ^when he is on active service: but when debarred from fighting, the soldier, all the world over, and especially the office...r-soldier, wants to be well-housed, well-roomed, well-fed, and above all, well-amused. This seems to be the one military trait which Korea has not yet for- gotten. Above the gates that open into Soul, and into every other walled Korean city, are built very cosy little stone houses. In these the soldiers on guard — the gate keepers — ^play cards, eat rice, munch sweetmeats, and sip arrack. Above the gateways that lead into the houses of Korean magistrates, Korean nobles, and of Korean millionaires, just such houses are built.
