To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" 'Tis a good head," he said, " but I do not see Thanatop- sis there." The poem was published in the September number of the Review in 1817, and it is preceded by a separate poem of four stanzas, which was attached to it by mistake.
William C^illen Bryant. 21 Their tone is that of the same melancholy fas- cination with death, but they are in a wholly different key. Thanatopsis itself, as originally printed, contained but forty-nine of the eighty- one lines that we know, and it was accom- panied... by three of the MSS. which the Doc- tor had found in his office drawer: the Inscription for the Entrance to a Wood, and two translations from Horace.
This is all that we know of the production of this poem. I linger upon it, because it was the first adequate poetic voice of the solemn New England spirit ; and in the gran- deur of the hills, in the heroic Puritan tra- dition of sacrifice and endurance, in the daily life, saddened by imperious and awful theologic dogma, in the hard circumstance of the pioneer household, the contest with the wilderness, the grim legends of Indians and the war, have we not some outward clue to the strain of Thanatopsis, the depthless and entrancing sadness, as of inexorable fate, that murmurs, like the autumn wind through the for- est, in the melancholy cadences of this hymn to Death?
