To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Pistil: one, with a three-lobed stigma. Fniit : three-lobed, and splitting at maturity in three carpels. Leaves : with short petioles; ovate, rounded, or subcordate at the base and mostly pointed at the ape. X ; three-ribbed; finely serrate; paler and dingy pubescent underneath. A shrub, one to three feet high, with tomentose twigs which later become glabrous. Roots : dark red. On the high Alleghanies, where the fleecy, pretty bloom of this plant is seen often in great masses, it is perhaps gen...erally regarded as being use- ful. A bouquet would hardly ever be picked of it, for such in these parts is not the function of fiowers. But in the autumn its dark red roots are col- lected, not only for the cinnamon coloured dye they yield, but also to be used as a curative for diseases of the spleen. Then in such enormous quantities do the mountaineers drink the decoction that by a native doctor I was told they often produce inflammation of that organ. This practice, although not its abuse, they seem to have learned directly from the Cherokee Indians.
