To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Bianca, in the vault below, Crouched at her prayers and did not know This death, and of her father s shame; But heard their shouts and heard her name.
62 THE HILL-TOWER "Oh, little hands, " she softly sighed, "Wherefore should ye be crucified, What have ye done that men should see Naught in your grace, save witchery? Oh, yellow hair, so like the sun, What is this sin that thou hast done That men should have such hate of thee? And sweet grave face of ivory, So made for love and for desire, Why s...hould they crave thee for the fire? Fire of love was meant for thee. " Her sister bent and kissed the hands Which hung straight down like two white wands, And hid her lips in a yellow tress, And kissed the breasts where they met the dress, And laid her cheek on the weary face To wipe away each tear s distress, To cleanse of grief each grievous place.
"And this for thee, " she said and kissed.
"And this for thee, " and held each wrist.
"And this for thee, " and met the lips.
As priest in sacred water dips His hand at last confessional To purge each thoroughfare of sense And bring again lost innocence, THE HILL-TOWER 63 So she made pure and perfect all.
