To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Mercury. — I believe, Clio, you will do right : and as one end of your roll is a little mouldy, no doubt you will begin with that ; but the ghosts will raise a great clamor.
Clio. — I expect no less ; but necessity has no law.
All the parchment in Pergamus is used up, — my roll is long enough to reach from earth to heaven ; it is grown quite cumbrous ; it takes a life, as mortals reckon lives, to unroll it.
' Mercury. — Yet consider, Clio, how many of these have passed a restless life, and enco...untered all man- ner of dangers, and bled and died only to be placed upon your list, — and now to be struck off !
Clio. — And committed all manner of crimes, you might have added ; — but go they must. Besides, they have been sufficiently recompensed. Have they not been praised, and sung, and admired for some thousands of years ? Let them give place to others : What! Have they no conscience? no modesty?
Would Xerxes, think you, have reason to complain, when his parading expeditions have already procured him above two thousand years of fame, though a Solyman or a Zingis Khan should fill up his place ?
