To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Before he put on his shoes, he passed the razor over the sole of one of them to clean the edge — then he took off his coat, tucked up his shirt sleeves above the elbow, and with the candle in one hand and the razor in the other, he left the room, proceeded along a narrow passage which led to the back of the house, put the razor into his mouth, and the candle on the floor, whilst he raised a trap-door which formed the entrance to the once well filled cellar, where they still kept the small quant...ity of liquors their humble trade demanded.
There was a bolt to the trap which should have been drawn — ^it was not ; but Ro- dolphe's mind was too much absorbed to observe the neglected caution. The pan- nel being raised, a ladder appeared, by which the descent was to be made ; but being almost perpendicular, it was neces- sasy to tttm round and go down back- wards. Rodolphe did so, cautiously and softly, for he would have been glad that his victim were asleep — step by step lie descended — ^the razor still in his mouth, and the candle in his hand — ^he reached the last round of the ladder— the next step was deeper-*-he stretched out his foot to place it firmly on the ground — ^he trod on something — ^it was not the earth — it gave way beneath his weight — he stooped the rushlight and looked down — ^and saw he was standing on his dead mother s breast I Horror seized him — he dropped the razor and the light — rushed up the ladder, and fled amain." CHAPTER XXII.
