To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The scorpion brood of malice did not bask Within the chambers of her fearless breast; For friend or enemy she wore no mask, Nor welcomed any but her heart's true guest. E'en Chaucer's Prioress could learn from her In all the arts that delicately please, Nor did her body's direst torture stir Revolt against the slightest one of these. She was not faultless, but her love supplied The place of lesser things to her denied. She deeply touched the chords of life As maid, as mother, and as wife, Till ...music tracked along the ways Of all her bounty-gloried days; And we who shared the chiefest part In her benign, exhaustless heart, Now lonely sit, and list in vain For that excelling, lofty strain. XII MY FOUNTAIN When tossed and tumbled in the raging strife, That makes so large a part of human life; When wearied with the uneffectual pains That brought my head and heart such paltry gains; When Melancholy spread its dusky wings Above me, and I missed the soul of things; When weakness held me as with giant hand Till all my treasure seemed at its command; I laid my head upon her bounteous breast, And filled my being's urn with strength and rest.
