To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So modest in thy freehold And tenure of the earth, Thy needs, for all our meddling. Are few and little worth.
Content thee, not with pity; Be solaced, not with tears; But when the whitethroats waken Through the revolving years, 89 By the Aurelian Wall Hereafter be that peerless And dirging cadence, child, Thy threnody unsullied. Melodious, and wild.
Then winter be thy housing, Thy lullaby the rain. Thou hero of no battle, Thou saint without a stain.
90 IN THE HEART OF THE HILLS In the warm blue... heart of the hills My beautiful, beautiful one Sleeps where he laid him down Before the journey was done.
All the long summer day The ghosts of noon draw nigh, And the tremulous aspens hear The footing of winds go by.
91 By the Aurelian Wall Down to the gates of the sea, Out of the gates of the west, Journeys the whispering river Before the place of his rest.
The road he loved to follow When June came by his door. Out through the dim blue haze Leads, but allures no more.
The trailing shadows of clouds Steal from the slopes and are gone; The myriad life in the grass Stirs, but he slumbers on; 92 In the Heart of the Hills The inland wandering tern Skreel as they forage and fly; His loons on the lonely reach Utter their querulous cry; Over the floating lilies A dragon-fly tacks and steers; Far in the depth of the blue A martin settles and veers; To every roadside thistle A gold-brown butterfly clings; But he no more companions All the dear vagrant things.
