To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The result of my investigation was complimentary neither to the pie nor to its compounder.
We then went back to bed, — the piece of pie and I, — and in dreams I saw a gaunt figure rise from a dark corner and approach me with the words: "At last, son-in-law, I have thee in my power." Next morning we arose, — that piece of pie and I, — and I was pale, exhausted, trembling. We kept company many moons.
Had it not been for my wife, a most frugal soul, I should have thrown the remnants of the pie awa...y, but my wife represented that it would be wicked to indulge in such extrav- agance. As it was, I did upon one occasion cast some bits of the pie to the sparrows that clustered, shiveringly and appealingly, upon the rail of the window balcony. It was THE ENGLISH MINCE PIE 113 pathetic to see each hungry little creature hop down and pick up a crumb of the pie and hold it . in his mouth and roll his eyes back and think, then sneeze, drop the crumb, and fly away, never to return.
A week ago last Sunday the dolorous tones of a hand-organ came up from the street below, A poor woman, wretchedly clad, was grinding out the melancholy tune of "Shall We Gather at the River?" It was a dreary, raw, chilly day.
