To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There was a time when he was but a part — The smaller part, when, standing at the helm, She guided on a larger ship of state Through shoals and breakers of a sinful age To havens safe beyond. Oh, why did fate Decree for such an actress such a stage. When such a part she might have play'd that she Could cast the lots that form'd futurity .^^ 41 Her subject — what was he? Was he a man Whose purposes were sway'd by everyone That will'd, or was he one such as might fan The flames of infant nations,... and then run A race of truth 'gainst all of hell itself : A man who might a multitude have thrill'd And turn'd a heedless ear to bribing pelf? Ah, such he might have been had he but will'd But he was strange and strange was his ideal — A life of love to lift his purpose higher Became his dream. He sought to make it real, And thus with her he found his heart's desire. A nation's mark'd esteem seem'd but as naught To lessons that her purity had taught. VI Her fingers lightly touch responsive string Upon the Creole's favor'd instrument; Her bosom swells and she begins to sing Her song of love and happiness content; And Philomel grows silent at the note, And turning spell-bound ear to list the strain Of rapture now ascending from her throat.
