To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At that time he was just seventy years of age, but he looked younger, with a jovial, merry face and a superabundance of force, physical and mental. On Sunday evening he preached to the guests assembled in the saloon of the hotel. His subject was '' The Brotherhood of Man, '' the need of tolerance and respect for those of other creeds than our own, with a special warning to us to remember that there was much in professed Christendom which must shock and repel Moslem races, and that in the very m...atters wherein w e CAROLINE MARTYN 225 held ourselves so superior we are so only in theory. He spoke in French, with tremendous energy. I could follow him easily until his peroration, when he rose to such fluent eloquence that I could catch but a word here and there. One very arresting personality with whom I was brought in contact was that of Caroline Martyn, the Socialist lecturer. She was the daughter of a home and an environment typically English middle-class. A little book written after her death by a relative reveals the limitations of her youthful culture, and shows how she rested com- pletely content within these till she was twenty- three years of age, when, under the influence of her mother's sister, she passed through Radicalism into Socialism.
