To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
«sty 24- From where the weary winding Wolga strays, And tribute to the lonely Caspian pays ; To Zembla's glitt'ring hills and icy straits, Where solitude on desolation waits ; One chequer'd waste of faintly culturM fields^ That nought for pleasure or for plunder yields; That no invader tempts, aught to forego For icy-vested vales or hills of snow.
One pow'r alone her standard dares to rear, And check the tyrant in his mad career ; To call her sons from peace and beauty's arms, To Avar's tremend...ous din of dread alarms. Britain ! sole barrier of Gallic sway ! Britain, whom rude and polisli'd clinics obey ; Sun of this sad, and else-benighted world, Round whose bar'd arm and banner yet unfurl'd, Earth's mournful sons in wild confusion press, And- cheering hail, as though from Heav'n, redress ; Of smiling peace and freedom yet the seat ; Of arts and civil life the last retreat.
25 Arm\l at all points she dares the threaten' d blow, Tells the world's tyrant " hither shall thou go. " Her glitt'ring arms that seem to woo the fight, Dazzle the day and scare the silent night ; Her warlike port and plume that greets the sky, The fire indignant flashing from her eye, Inspire, while guarding freedom's sacred dome, Terror abroad and confidence at home.
