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

His mode of writing and his opinions entailed upon him a perpetual struggle with poverty. When Sir Robert Peel made Southey the offer of a baronetcy, referred to in the preceding memoir, he supposed that the Laureate, like many of bis contemporaries, had made a fortune by literature. When the true state of the case was explained, a correspondence ensued between the poet and the statesman, which is alike honourable to both. It resulted in a pension of, =£300 a year, in lieu of the baronetcy. Thi...s augmentation of income relieved many pressing cares, and Southey, looking forward to an old age of leisure and affluence, married a second time, the alliance being contracted with Miss Bowles, an accomplished authoress, who had long been one of his dearest friends. Domestic comfort seemed in store for him. But alas ! how illusory are all human hopes ! the change had come too late, the stout worker had toiled beyond his strength. The gnawing cares of poverty, the fatigue of solitary study, had undermined his health, and he fell a prey to disease more terrible than death.
