To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
One afternoon it was lightly powdered with snow, so as to give it a tint of sober olive ; with a larger quan- tity of frost or snow, and stronger and more direct sunshine, it has looked like dead silver ; at another time it was tipped with fire ; at another it was pavi- lioned in flame-coloured clouds ; — a few light mists would shut it entirely out, or, where transparent, give to it a wan and visionary hue ; and in the even- ing, when the clouds put on a gayer livery, becoming rose-coloured, o...r purple, or bronzed, the changes and flushes would almost remind you of the variable colours on a pigeon's neck ; or, as a poet has said, ' Of hues that blush and glow Like angels' wings.' "* * Bullar's Azores, i. 368.
THE ATLANTIC OCEAN. If 3 Some curious traditions are found in the writings of the ancients respecting an island of very large size, believed to have once existed in the Atlantic. Plato, in the Timseus, gives the fullest account of this island, which was called Atlantis. It is stated to have been nearly two hundred miles in length, situated opposite the Straits of Gibraltar.
