To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
18 When it knows itself safe, it \n\\ threaten and hector : Like Alexander I wiU reign. And I will reign alone ; My thoughts did evermore disdain A rival on my throne. He either fears his fate too much, Or his deserts are small. That dares not put it to the touch, To gain or lose it all. But if thou wilt prove faithful then, And constant of thy word, I'll make thee glorious by my pen. And famous by my sword ; I'll serve thee in such noble ways Was never heard before ; I'll crown and deck thee a...ll with bays. And love thee more and more.^^ Our poetry would not have been altogether shamed had it been able to support its title to share in Parnassus by none other than such casual blossoms as I have cited. It has the right to call in aid another contingent. There are European hteratures in which folklore has played an important part. That scarcely holds in Enghsh, though I do not know why it should not have. There are noble exceptions. A high spirit of romance breathes through the patchwork, yet wholly chivalrous, Syr Cauhne.
