To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Much or most of it is not only firm and regular, but rigorous ; and when he chooses to be demure, his sober utterance has almost the virtues of Racine's, without the pride of carriage. Racine alone, and possibly Lamartine, can match his natural sensitiveness to the merely sonorous value of words — a gift he presumed on. Not all his experiments with harmony and rhythm (assonance encroaching upon the prerogatives of rime, lines docked of a syllable to disconcert the ear, etc.) are happy. Their co...mmon tendency is towards equivocation. But in general his form is respectful of traditions, even when they rely on conventions grown hollow ; and he carried the dislocation of the Alexandrine, in particular, no farther really than the stage it had reached before him, in which a new rhythm is still marriageable with the old. Verlaine has often attained an aerial tenderness, and as often sunk to an earthiness and triviality, which are equally characteristic. He had the secret of faltering with grace, and he is less intellectually clear than emotionally simple.
