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

I had offered them peace, but they had preferred war ; I had proffered them my friend- ship, and they had spurned it. That there was no alter- native left me. I had chastised them, and was appeased. I then exhorted the wife of Gattanewa to endeavor to impress on the minds of every person the necessity of living on friendly terms with us ; that we were disposed to consider them as brothers ; that we had come with no hostile intentions toward them, and so long as they treated us as friends we wou...ld protect them against all their enemies. The old woman was all attention to my discourse as delivered through Wilson the interpreter ; and I was about proceeding when she requested me to stop. She now rose and commanded silence among the multitude, which had considerably augmented since my arrival, and addressed them with much grace and energy in a speech of about half an hour ; exhorting them, as I understood, to conduct themselves with propriety, and explaining to them the advantages likely to result from a good understanding with us.
