To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" What dost thou here, thou worthy Father Prior?" I asked, "Art interested in the re- storation of the Church of Our Lady of Bar- freston ? " But of the proximity of this Norman gem he knew nothing. Again, the Italian ecclesiastic has small admiration for Gothic architecture, and before I could convert him to an appreciation of its beauties, or extract from him a promise that he would make a pilgrimage to this Shrine of Barfreston, the Prior's train (in mediaeval times he would have travelled w...ith his own train, but now the London, Chatham, and Dover provides it for him) arrives and he is whirled away. " There is another and a better whirled, " murmured T'Otherest Guv'nor as the train departed. Then ours arrived. And oh ! how eager were the two Guv'nors to reach Dover and the Lord Gordon Hotel. In the Birthplace of Podgers^ J. L. Toole used to have one catch- line through the piece, " I've only an hour BARFRESTON ty; for my dinner, " and this occurred to T'Other Guv'nor when with Gargantuan appetite, on referring first to train guide, then to porter at hotel, to head-waiter, and to obliging manageress, he found that, owing to circumstances over which the above-mentioned authorities had no control, the two travellers were out of their reckoning by just twenty minutes, and that the gorgeous lunch ordered for Guzzling Jack and Gorging Jimmy by telegram twenty-four hours ago, must be served up and devoured in twenty- five minutes "by Shrewsbury (or any other) clock, " and that then we must rush off" to catch the only train that could be caught that day, the only train, that is, that would fit in exactly with the arrangement made and provided most thoughtfully beforehand by T'Otherest with the sanction and approval of T'Other.
