To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Horses, like human beings, " do better " in these higher and cooler regions. They are carefully covered, just as warmer clothes are worn by their masters. The sight of ladies warming themselves before a fire is a strange one in Ceylon, yet I was glad to find a fire in our hotel. Frost is not a novelty in these regions ; the thermometer rarely, if ever, rises over 72". The weather in these higher altitudes is, I believe, often wet or misty. Mists were rolling the mountain sides during my visit t...o Nuwar'alia, as it is usually called. Adam's Peak, 7,352 feet high, is the most famous KANDY AND THE HIGHER COUNTRY 151 mountain in Ceylon. It is about fifty miles from Colombo, and, in clear weather, may be seen at a great distarice. Its name to all the natives, of whatever faith they are, is Sri Pada, the Holy Foot. Buddhists, Hindoos, Mohammedans, all claim an interest in the " Holy Foot." Pilgrims, year after year, flock from all quarters, and worship on its summit. But Adam's Peak is not the highest mountain of the island.
