To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Next a small grassy plain three-quarters of a mile broad is passed, after which we again come to the forest, and going through it N.W. by N. for two miles, we reach a small stream flowing W. to the Luebo, into which all the rivulets that are subse- quently crossed between this and the station likewise drain. At this point the road takes another direction. It now trends N.E. by N., crossing a small plain three-quarters of a mile broad, and thereafter a narrow belt of jungle rather less in width.... Next going N.E. by E., we cross another plain i^ miles broad, and then enter the dense and uninter- rupted forest, through which the road gradually descends for 1 3f miles in a general direction of N.E. by E. half E., until we emerge once more into the dazzling sunlight and free air not far from the station at Luebo, of whose proximity the ceaseless boom of falling waters echoing for miles through the moist close woods has forewarned us.
