To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As the wood decomposes it becomes brown in colour, a result which is probably due to the higher oxidation of the tannin. Although soft when damp, the wood bears some resemblance to 220 DISEASES OF TREES charcoal when di'}-, and may be rubbed down between the fingers into an impalpable yellow powder. An important property which it possesses is its great sponge-like power of absorbing water. This is chiefly due to the fact that, owing to the cell-walls having been perforated by the filamentous my...celia, the air is enabled to escape in front of the water which enters by capillarity. Thus it happens that when a house is attacked by M. lacryvians the woodwork is able to absorb water with great ease, and to transport it to considerable distances. Thus the capillarit}' of the diseased wood makes it possible for liquid water to be conveyed from the ground floor of a house to the upper stories, which it may render damp by evaporation. So far wood that is decomposed by M. lacrynians resembles that which is attacked by what is popularly called dry-rot.
