To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Near to the soil, and to the lowly clinging.
Terrestrial in thy birth.
Yet with cerulean color ever bringing The depth of Heaven to earth.
A herald thou, the vernal days endearing.
With raiment brave bedight, 28 For aye within thy lifted hand uprearing The gonfalon of Light ; Shaming the brutal world of war and plunder Where ruthless wars increase ; Rebuking all the savage battle-thunder With undertone of peace.
Still mayst thou dwell amid the quiet places Deep in the silent glen, Afar from all
... the canker that debases The sordid haunts of men !
I would not take thee from thy sylvan hiding O hyacinthine flower, Yet may thy spirit enter mine, abiding Until my closing hour !
29 ISEULT I When in the dell of darksome leaves 1 saw the wheel the spider weaves Besprent with drops of crimson dew, Her fate, or mine, at once I knew.
II Beneath the moat, within the wild.
They found her, — placid as a child : Death could not, at his worst, erase The marble beauty of her face.
Ill When by the tarn, distraught with love, I saw the wheel the spider wove, I prayed that I might lie beside That saintliness that was my bride.
