To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Dr. Howe hasbeen ably seconded by an accomplished teacher, James B. Richards, who hasdevoted his whole time to the pupils. Of the nature and magnitude oftheir task, an idea may be formed only by considering the utterlistlessness of idiocy, the incapability of the poor pupil to fix hisattention upon anything, and his general want of susceptibility toimpressions. All his senses are dulled and perverted. Touch, hearing, sight, smell, are all more or less defective. His gluttony isunaccompanied wit...h the gratification of taste, --the most savory viandsand the offal which he shares with the pigs equally satisfy him. Hismental state is still worse than his physical. Thought is painful andirksome to him. His teacher can only engage his attention by strenuous efforts, loud, earnest tones, gesticulations and signs, and a constant presentation ofsome visible object of bright color and striking form. The eye wanders, and the spark of consciousness and intelligence which has been fannedinto momentary brightness darkens at the slightest relaxation of theteacher's exertions.
