To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How exquisite the costly wine ! How carefully is every dish Prepared to meet the gourmet's wish ! My first (such orders may be rare) Is doubtless served and eaten there ; My second, hardly self-contained, Is offered by a waiter trained To callow dudelet and his dear. Lambs, bulls, and bears assemble here, And here my whole pokes up his saucy head, An upstart, spawned in filth, in cellars bred.
CLXV A COBBLER to a turner came, ** He took a drink to quench his thirst, He vowed his throat was all ...aflame, Said he, " My last must be my first. " The turner looked at him and laughed, He laughed till he was like to burst, Said he, " I know my handicraft, My last will surely turn my first. " My whole looked out with anxious eye, He saw two boys had brought a pole, Said he, " I fear that I must die, That in my hole they '11 find my whole. " CLXVI I LOVE to dream of tropic lands, Of cocoa palms, and coral sands, And happy islands fringed with shade, That never knew the laws of trade ; Or where in lands beyond the sea My first my second to a tree, My whole his simple wants supply : So I would live, there would I die.
