To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was Bill the Bargeman, who had knocked his pipeout and the red ash had fallen on the hearth-rug and smouldered thereand at last broken into flame. Though a stern man he was just. He didnot blame his wife for what was his own fault, as many bargemen, andother men, too, would have done.
* * * * * * Mother was half wild with anxiety when at last the three children turnedup at Three Chimneys, all very wet by now, for Peter seemed to have comeoff on the others. But when she had disentangled t...he truth of what hadhappened from their mixed and incoherent narrative, she owned that theyhad done quite right, and could not possibly have done otherwise. Nordid she put any obstacles in the way of their accepting the cordialinvitation with which the bargeman had parted from them.
"Ye be here at seven to-morrow, " he had said, "and I'll take you theentire trip to Farley and back, so I will, and not a penny to pay. Nineteen locks!" They did not know what locks were; but they were at the bridge at seven, with bread and cheese and half a soda cake, and quite a quarter of a legof mutton in a basket.
