To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He ruled us with an iron rod, The Britons' cry went up to God, He spared not woman, man or child To heathendom unreconciled. The fires that lit an azure sky Mocked summer with the martyr's cry, And, while that summer's zenith shone, Relentless still those fires burned on. They smouldered till the tyrant's wrath Only required its aftermath To crown the harvest earlier won, When, rising from the forest path, Where all was still, and everyone Had thought the hideous orgy done, Fresh kindled shone ...the cursed flame, A higher victim now to claim. " BOOK XV. THE PERSECUTION. The lament of Caradoc on the death of Carence. Whilst he is still speaking the voice of Ival is heard coming up from the glen, where his nurse had hid him that morning on hearing of the soldiers' approach. The child then inquires for his brother, but before Caradoc can reply the soldiers, who have returned, snatch the boy away and drown him on the sands in the incoming tide, before his father's eyes. The effect of this is almost to deprive Caradoc temporarily of his reason, and he disappears in the woods, where, seven days after, he stumbles on a wild boar, and flying from the animal through the forest falls into a Druid's cave.
