To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
110 Oh God, if thus thy name was praised, Ere yet thy me icy fully shone, What mortal voices should be raised To swell the anthems round thy throne, Now that its cresent beam displays O'er heaven and earth it> cloudless blaze? Blest harp ! shall none thy music wake? Must thou remain untouch'd, unstrung? Or hands, like mine, essay to break The silence which has round thee hung, As breezes o'er the strings that sigh, Making uncertain melody? Oh, might some mightier bard arise, More worthy of thy ...ancient strain, Whose fire, descended from the skies, Might reach its native home again, — Then should we cease our feeble lays, And join him in his songs of praise. 117 O GOD, WHOSE WISDOAI LAUNCH'D. O God, whose wisdom launcli'd the spheres, Whose name each orb of light reveres, Where worlds on worlds in splendour rise To gild the concave of the skies ; Whose glory fills the fields of air; Shall mortal man demand thy care ? Though wide thy wisdom as all space, Beyond e'en mental skill to trace, Though far, without or bound or end, Thy matchless majesty extend ; Though bright thy power and glory shine, A milder attribute is thine.
