To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Fired with an equal joy, he marked the gleam Of France's Eagles kiss the morning beam, Fought for her fair renown, to battle led, And proudly perished, at her Legion's head !
69 He too, like thee had friends, a Father poured A last sad blessing on his youthful sword, Prayed for his distant safety, heard with joy The martial darings of his gallant boy, Winged with an ardent hope each anxious sigh, And viewed his dangers with a veteran's eye.
E'en now, on bleak Helvetia's icy rock, Or bloomy hill... of vine-clad Languedoc, E'en now, perhaps, through midnight's chilly skies To Heaven the reekless prayer of fondness flies, The warmest hopes that e'er Affection wove, The sigh of Friendship, or the throb of Love ; For sure the stoutest breast may sometimes lend One blameless sigh to grace an absent friend, 70 The World may. Yield to calm regret a part Of the bright sunshine of a Female Heart, On cheek of Age one tear-drop yet may burn, When the Soul ponders on a Child's return !
Then sacred be their last repose who fall Bravely and greatly at their Duty's call, Mix with their Country's cries their parting Breath, And from her Vanguard face her foes in Death !
