To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That his convictions on this head survived one ofthe best Simla tailors shows that they must always have been strong. Ithink he believed that he was doing all that he did do to make himselfsocially possible with the purpose of pleasing Dora Harris. I wouldnot now venture to say how far Dora inspired and controlled him inthis direction, and how far the impulse was his own. The measure ofappreciation that began to seek his pictures, poor and small though itwas, gave him, on the other hand, the mo...st unalloyed delight. He talkedof the advice of Sir William Lamb as if it were anything but that of apompous old ass, and he made a feast with champagne for Blum that musthave cost him quite as much as Blum paid for the Breton sketch. Heconfirmed my guess that he had never in his life until he came to Simlasold anything, so that even these small transactions were great thingsto him, and the earnest of a future upon which he covered his eyes notto gaze too raptly. He mentioned to me that Kauffer had been askedfor his address--who could it possibly be?--and looked so damped by myhumourous suggestion that it was a friend of Kauffer's in some otherline who wanted a bill paid, that I felt I had been guilty of brutality.
