Have you ever seen an English sentence longer than this one?

Question:

Have you ever seen an English sentence longer than this one?

Exhausted by the effort involved in keeping the thermometer of the closing day of August at an altitude intolerable to the human kind and irksome to the brute, a large, red-hot sun was languidly sinking beyond an extensive belt of dusky-brown elms fringing the western boundary of a seventy acre expanse of stubbles diagonally traversed by a parish right-of-way leading from the village of Bensley to the village of Dorton Ware.

So I just randomly opened the Marx-Engels reader and I found: "Leaving aside the attempt to ride on Liebknecht's people's state, which in general is nonsense aimed against the Communist Manifesto and so on, this only means: in view of the fact that during the time of struggle to destroy the old society the proletariat still acts on the foundation of old society and therefore still gives its movement political forms that more or less belong to the old society, in this time of struggle it has not yet attained its final organization and uses means for its liberation which will fall away after the liberation; from this Herr Bakunin deduces that it's best for the proletariat not to undertake any action but to sit and await - the day of general liquidation, the Last Judgement."

Admittedly this is Robert Tucker's translation of Marx, but I doubt that longer sentences are that uncommon.
