To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was a level valley, not — like that which we had passed — a wide sloping cleft between the hills, but having a quiet, slow- paced stream, which flowed through level green grounds tufted with trees intermingled with cottages. The tops of the hills were hidden by mists, and the objects in the valley seen through misty rain, which made them look exceed- ingly soft, and indeed partly concealed them, and we always fill up what we are left to guess at with something as beautiful as what we see. Th...is valley seemed to have less of the appearance of barrenness or imperfect cultivation than any of the same character we had passed through ; indeed, we could not discern any traces of it. It is called Strath Eyer. ' Strath ' is generally applied to a broad vale ; but this, though open, is not broad. We next came to a lake, called Loch Lubnaig, a name which signifies ' winding.' In shape it somewhat resembles Ulswater, but is much narrower and shorter, being only four miles in length. The character of this lake is simple and grand.
