To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Its desolate calm unstirred by the sweep Of white-winged ships coming in from the deep.
Yet we freighted our ships with many a bale - And saw them grow small to our sight.
And year after year, till the hours grow pale We wearily watch for the gleam of a sail.
Our hearts rise and fall with each wavering gale ; Our hopes fade alike with the light ; 74 WILD WOOD CHIMES.
Yet are they sailing to us is unknown.
On what nameless seas by the wild tempests blown.
Oft as we pause on the star-gilded stran...d Awaiting the flush of the dawn, A phantom steals slowly o'er driftwood and sand, And gathers the shells with a trembling hand ; Touching the waves with her magical wand They murmur like streams that are gone — And softly, sweet music floats o'er the shore, Songs half-forgotten, yet missed evermore.
Sung by the voices long since unheard, Dreamful as strains the gnome-bard sings ; With the rhythm and rhyme of leaves that are stirred By a half-breathed sigh, or a half-spoken word; By the quivering trill of a distant bird, Or the rustle of silken wings.
