To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Three days in the week (the Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) are now set aside for the free admission of all persons of decent appearance, from whom nothing is required but their inscribing their names in a book. They are limited neither in number nor in time, except the shutting of the house at four o'clock. A compendious catalogue, which is sold in the hall, points out the most remarkable objects contained in the collec- tions. I must own that in my perambulations I was singularly gratified t...o find with what ease I could satisfy my curiosity, and by repeated and unrestrained visits to have the means of examining leisurely and attentively such articles as are the particular objects of my curiosity. Indeed the public must feel themselves very grateful for having such easy opportunities afforded them for improvement or rational enter- tainment. " This was the beginning of the freedom that we now enjoy in our museums and galleries, a freedom, however, that could not safely have been per- mitted a generation or two earlier.
