To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
36 THE NEW DAY. VII. LOVE S CRUELTY. "AND this, then, is thy love, " I hear thee say, " And dost thou love, and canst thou torture so ? Ah, spare me, if thou lov st me, this last woe ! " But I am not my own; I must obey My master ; I am slave to LOVE ; his sway Is cruel as the grave. When he says Go ! I go ; when he says Come ! I come. I know No law but his. When he says Slay ! I slay. As cruel as the grave? Yes crueller. Cruel as light that pours its stinging flood Across the dark, and makes a...n anguished stir Of life. Cruel as life that sends through blood Of mortal the immortal pang and spur. Cruel as thy remorseless maidenhood. INTERLUDE, THE cloud was thick that hid the sun from sight And over all a shadowy roof outspread, Making the day dim with another night Not dark like that whicji passed, but oh ! more dread For the clear sunlight that had gone before And prophecy of that which yet should be. Like snow at night the wind-blown hills of sand Shone with an inward light far down the land: Beneath the lowering sky black was the sea Across whose waves a bird came flying low Borne swift on the wind with wing-beat halt and slow From out the dull east toward the foamy shore.
