To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Brooks or dry ravines are things he would meet with in a state of nature. If galloping in a AYild state he came to one of these, and was excited, he would as naturally extend his stride or bound to twenty feet as he had taken twelve in his gallop ; but timber is quite a different affair. Dame Nature, capital workwoman as she is in making an oak tree or an heir to an estate, never made a five-barred gate in her existence ; consequently she never gave a horse an idea of jumping one. In practising... horses at a leaping-bar, I have often been astonished at the absurdities and wanton severity I have seen used. It is very common to see a naked bar so adjusted as to fall in case a horse should hit it. Now this is the very time when it should be immove- able : the allowing a bar to give way will spoil all the horses in the world : if he is a young or unprac- tised one, we are positively teaching him to knock down or attempt to knock down timber whenever he sees it, instead of clearing it. How is a horse to know we want him to jump over what he finds it easier to knock down ?
