To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In spring, out-of-door amusements were heartily entered into when the rains would permit ; after which, so late as the end of June, the climate appears to have been delicious. A clear air, with the thermometer varying from 78° to 86°, left such as breathed it free to go abroad at all hours ; and encouraged them, not only to angle, as many did with great success, but to add football, hocky, and quoits to the list of their athletic sports. Thus far all things went on as could have been desired. T...he Afghan chiefs professed, and acted, as if they felt something like regard for their European invaders individually ; though they never scrupled to tell them frankly, that, as a people, they were abhorred. Moreover, excellent discipline being preserved, there occurred no grounds of collision between the occupants of the camp or the cantonments and the populace. In one respect, however, a regard to historical truth compels us to acknowledge, that less regard was paid to the prejudices of the inhabitants than could have been wished.
