To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
[Illustration] Thought Nick, I'll make his harp a fool; I'll push him from his music-stool; Then, skulking near the saint, The vilest jars Nick loudly sounded, Of brayings, neighings, screams compounded; How the musician's ears were wounded, Not Hogarth e'en could paint.
The devil fancied it rare fun. "Well! don't you like my second, Dun? Two parts sound better sure than one, " Said he, with queer grimace: "Come sing away, indeed you shall; Strike up a spicy madrigal, And hear me do the bas...s. " This chaffing Dunstan could not brook, His clenched fist, his crabbed look Betrayed his irritation. 'Twas nuts for Nick's derisive jaw, Who fairly chuckled when he saw The placid saint's vexation.
"_Au revoir_, friend, adieu till noon; Just now you are rather out of tune, Your visage is too sharp; Your ear perhaps a trifle flat: When I return, 'All round my hat' We'll have upon the harp. " A tale, I know, has gone about, That Dunstan twinged him by the snout With pincers hotly glowing; Levying, by _fieri facias_ tweak, A diabolic screech and squeak, No tender mercy showing.
