To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Even of the few new cottages which are being built, none have more than two bed-rooms, while many have not more than one. Their walls are better built than those of the older cottages, and their roofs are slate instead of thatch ; but these are in general the only improvement on the old and general style of cottages. The sites of the new cottages are at least as wretched as those of the old. One singular thing is, that this state of things has existed so long, that the poor have sunk below com-... plaining, and that the landlords and richer classes are quite surprised, if you talk to them of the miserable condition of the peasants' cottages. They have learned Hosted by CjOOQIC 126 THE PEASANTS' COITAGES to tMnk it a necessary state of things, and ridicule the idea of its being the result of a system of defective legislation. Many go much further, and boldly main- tain, that it is better that the peasants should not be educated, as education would naake them thoroughly discontented with their present position in life.
