To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With us, such articles, even Avhen of more precious materials, and more expensively decorated, are made without any attention to symmetry of proportion, or harmony of paits : — tlie spout appears to pull one way, the handle another; and an inclined top is placed upon a flat bottom. For as the component pieces are usually made by diffe- rent hands, and put together afterwards, they have seldom any relation to each other, except that of size. But in the little specimen of ancient manu- facture he...re given, all is in harmony and unison : die oblique line of the bottom corresponds with that of the top ; the handle bends forward iij the same direction with the spout; and all the intermediate parts are moulded so as to have the same tendency, and an appearance of co-operating with each other. — See plate III. hi Which through each rank of life its influence spread, From the king's palace to the peasant's shed ; And gently moulded to its soft control Each power of sympathy that moves the soul.
