To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He might get on alone, spite of brambles and boulders. But he can't with that bundle he has on his shoulders. The top of the hill he will never come nigh reaching Till he learns the distinction 'twixt singing and preaching; His lyre has some chords that would ring pretty well. But he 'd rather by half make a drum of the shell, And rattle away till he 's old as Mathusalem, At the head of a march to the last new Jerusalem. Evidently he thought that he paid too much attention to pohtics, as in the... ' ' Biglow Papers, " and to lecturing, and various side issues, when he ought to be cultivating pure poetry more assidu- ously; or rather, he would have liked to be a simple poet and do . nothing else, not even earn a living. The way he characterizes in this poem the great writers whom we know is both amusing and inter- esting, and he generally tells the truth. For instance, he writes — There comes Poe, with his raven, like Barnaby Rudge, Three fifths of him genius and two fifths sheer fudge.
