To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This class is composed of the tories of England, the legitimists of France, the barons of Germany, the nobles of Spain, and the clergy of all these countries. They keep their eye on the summit of the social pyramid, a sum- mit which the lightnings have struck and blackened. They sincerely believe that the ills which now afflict 4 26 society arise mainly from neglect of the ancient ideas. They are therefore particularly opposed to modern innovations. They point to former prosperity, when the pos...sessions of the rich were not assailed by vulgar cupidity, and when noble prerogatives were not rashly questioned by parliamentary reformers. They love to frequent the ancient castles, and count their her- aldic armory, and muse on the good old days of tilts and tournaments. We half pardon this mistake of theirs, when we remember that the past was the sea- son of their joy, their action and their glory. That season has gone by. Their souvenirs are those belonging to age. The sun has passed its meridian, the shades of declining day begin to gather in the forests, and soon they will be called to watch the last lingering rays.
