To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She saw the old clock that for ages had stood, The pride of that humble but cleanly abode ; She saw the old clock with its bright polished case, That so long had been deemed the heirloom of lierrace. 35 Whose tick like the voice of a friend ever came, And in every event had still cheered them the same ; She saw the rude hands of a stranger convey That valued old clock from their dwelling away. That clock had descended from sire to son For ages on ages, and now it was gone ; She wept not, alas !... but she felt as disgrace. The parting with its long familiar face. Her husband stood by but he spoke not a word, The rude jokes of the captors in silence he heard, And they stood there and watched them until one by one. Those prized household treasures for ever were gone. Then the cradle where each of her children were lulled, D 2 36 From its nook in the corner was ruthlessly pulled, And she thought of the corpse that so lately- had laid In that cradle, alas ! till the coffin was made. He had died of the fever at last it is true.
