To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They also, in many cases, evinced the utmost eagerness to pick up a few words of our language.
One little fellow I remember in particular, who learned to count as high as ten in as many minutes ; and the next day I found him on the sandy beach with a sharp stick, with which he was tracing 1, 2, 3, &c. As readily and accu- rajely as many thick-headed school-boys after a month of daily drubbings. He held in his left hand a slip of paper on which I had written him the numbers on the previous eveni...ng, and, recognising me as soon as I approached, made signs that he had no longer any use for those, and wanted me to put down some more. I looked at his childish frame and bright, sparkling eyes, and began to conceive a high idea of Japanese brains. It is needless THE PORTAL OF THE TEMPLE. 205 to add that myself and friend seated ourselves on a piece of ship-timber, and wrote him down the numbers ad in- jinitum, which he had no sooner received (the lead-pencil being added, to his lively joy) than he commenced count ing on his fingers as high as each number, when, as we bent our heads in assent, he put the Japanese character opposite to each, and, the whole being translated in that way, he smoothed off a place on the beach, and went to work with his sharp stick and a will that caused me to look back to my own truant-playing days and blush.
