To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Puttenham squeezes compositions into the shapes of tri- angles, eggs, and pilasters. Gabriel Harvey is accused by his tormentor, Nash, of doing the same, " of having writ yerse in all kinds, as in form of a pair of gloves, a dozen of points, a pair of spectacles, a two-hand sword, a poyna- do, a colossus, a pyramid, a painters easel, a market cross, a trumpet, an anchor, a pair of pot-hooks. " Puttenham's Art of Poetry, with its books, one on Proportion, the other on Ornament, might be compared... to an Art of War, of which one book treated of barrack drill, and the other of busbies, sabretasches, and different forms of epaulettes and fi-uthers. These writers do not want good sense or the power to make a good remark. But the stuff and mate- rial for good criticism, the strong and deep poetry, which makes such criticisms as theirs seem so absurd, had not yet appeared. A change was at hand ; and the suddenness of it is one of the most astonishing things in literary history. The ten years from 1580 to 1590 present a set of critical es- says, giving a picture of English poetry of which, though there are gleams of a better hope, and praise is specially bestowed on a " new poet, " the general character is feeble- ness, fantastic absurdity, affectation, and bad taste.
