To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A greedy wolf who ate in haste, Whilst others envied his repast, Contrived the flesh with speed to swallow, But found a bone that would not follow. Now do not at the matter joke, For this poor wolf began to choke With starting eyes he grasp'd for breath, And thought 'twould quickly end in death. At length a crane, to whom belongs A bill that's like a pair of tongs, Observed the wolfs distress and grief, Yet hasted not to his relief.
"Oh ! Mr. Spindleshanks, 1 pray Have mercy, do, and come this ...way ! One moment now your pinchers lend, And draw this bone to serve a friend ! Now pray be brisk, " the wolf implored ; " You'll have the bone for your reward. " The crane the terms began to ponder, And tho't them hard, and that's no wonder. " Promise, " said he, " a lamb to pick. " " Done, " said the wolf now pray be quick !" The crane, ere venturing to comply, First view'd the gulf with careful eye, At length the blade-bone did espy ; 12 BOOK OF FABLES Then pulling by an end of gristle, Withdrew the intruder from his whistle.
