To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the 26th of January, 1769, they sailed from Cape Horn, and arrived, after a prosperous voyage, at Otaheite, on the 11th of April. The delightful climate, pleasing landscape, and amiable people which here met them, may well be supposed to have en- chanted men who for eight long months had seen only the sea and the sky, unless when they touched on the arid and inhospitable coast of Terra del Fnego. But amid their repose and relaxation, business never was forgotten. They spent the time that ela...psed before the transit in astronomical observations, and in a minute examination of the island. Mr. Banks and his friend became tho- roughly acquainted with every branch of its natural history, but he also acquired extraordinary favour and influence with the natives, insomuch that he became the frequent arbiter in their dis- putes. This ascendant he owed to his frank and manly carriage, his perfect good humour, and his unfailing firmness, to which we must certainly add his noble presence, so well fitted to make an impression upon rude minds.
