To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many a lady for thy cot Gladly would forsake her lot, If her jeweled hand, as thine Might, in melancholy, Rest in peace upon the shrine Passed in Pozzuoli.
LA CENCI.
Guido, thine Ecce Homo's face may tell How high his faith has borne the Christian's art; Thy brain and hand have wrought it wondrous well.
This Ecce Femina was by thy heart All pitifully drawn, — as like, we know, As that the judge who then could dare to slay A trembling dove already wounded so Did shrink from daily to his final da...y, — His pain like this we suffer now, — for us She punishes, — one woman for them all.
O worthy Guido ! — but we pray that thus No Guidos more may our rude hearts appall ; But let our passing victims to the veil In peace withdraw such patient looks and pale.
SERENE.
He might have died and she alas ! lived on, He might have left her to her grieving here, Left one to whom, as woman, love was all.
He thinks it is as well that she is gone.
He who is left is dull — even one so dear Remembers little — can but scarce recall Her features — any save the tender eyes Wherein her soul, in all its beauty, lies.
