To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Blazes around and warms the snow-wrapt pole; Through all the spheres of kindred glows afar, And softly smiles on every distant star.
And all thy Judges, as thy laws are just, Them guilt and innocence alike may trust ; All selfish feeling they in truth disclaim, Through Britain none, a venal thought would name — > Men whose integrity none dare impeach — "Wliom shafts of calumny can never reach ; And men to tender Mercy ever true, Who while they punish yet who pity too — With sorrow see the sword... of Justice bare, And strike the guilty— innocence to spare — Men of illustrious and untarnished fame — Men who compose the bulwarks of thy name.
Britain. 5j Yet 'tis a fault that Pleading should be made, At tliy tribunals, such a venal trade — That smooth-tongu'd sophistry should e'er be sold. And simple truth be mystified for gold — That some who practice law, of meaner fame, Should give to guilt aud infamy the name. And make thy righteous statutes serve with ease. Whatever their cruel selfishness may please : And though the claims of Mercy may be shown, Mercy nor Justice will they deign to own ; Unheard must injur 'd widowhood complain.
