To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Janet, notwithstanding her coarseness of manner and harshness of speech, loved Morna ; her grand-mother, the parent of Miss Ro- 95 bertson, had been the companion of her youth ; she could not forget the hour of pain and sorrow in which that wretched sufferer had given the babe to her bosom, and though her ignorance led her to the imprudent step of throwing her charge on Mr. Douglas's protection, it was simplici- ty and want of judgment that erred. Ja- net could never bear Morna's naming her sup...posed mother, the unfortunate Isabel ; such mention recalled to her the deception she had been guilty of towards Macleod, atid filled her with fears of his future re- sentment. When his emissary was sent to Glen-Almond, and easily found the nurse of Isabel's child, he could entertain no doubt but the one he beheld at Janet's breast was the one he sought, particularly as with a view to mislead search, the child of Isabel had been reported by its parents to be a girl. Ere Janet yielded Miss Ro- bertson's babe to its father, she stipulated 96 that she should accompany it to Caithness, and left Glen-Almond without bidding farewell to any.
