Remember the Bulwer-Lytton?

Edward Bulwer-Lytton, author of the immortal, "It was a dark and stormy night..." is often hailed as the worst writer of all time.
Charles Dickens, author of the equally immortal, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..." is often hailed as the best writer of all time.
Can you tell the difference between their prose?
