To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet one is also often reminded that the author is well versed in the highest classic models. There are some exceedingly interesting and dramatic frag- ments from the Irish in the appendix : of course they are your own, as you do not name any other author. They are admir- ably rendered, and you must give us a collected volume of Dramatic fragments from the Irish. These sketches are much too good for an appendix. I look with wonder on this large and handsome volume evolved out of the dull routine... of Dublin life, where so little exists to stimulate the intellect. What thought, what courage, what intellectual fervour, to produce so noble a poem ! What artistic power to eliminate these scenes from the dark past of above a thousand years ago, and set them before us with so much of real human life and feeling, and with all the accessories so harmoniously blended in, that we are not startled by a single incongruity, nor yet are our sympathies disturbed by any visible effort to intrude the learning of the antiquary or historian !
