To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I will venture to assert that my brother's work yields nothing to his, how- ever, in minute precision of this kind ; and if so, it can hardly be doubtful that its being in blank verse is a great gain, even as adding the last refinement to exactness by showing the division of the lines ; but of course also on the higher poetic ground. I do not forget that a version already exists, by Mr. Pollock, professing a like aim with my brother's ; and must again express a hope that publicity will shortly ...afford to all an opportunity of judging the claims of the new attempt. I may here also acknowledge my obligations to my brother for valuable suggestions and assistance in the course of my present work.
