To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He flung himself at his white wife's side, And the dead lips moved and smiled, Then came somewhere from the lonely room The laugh of a little child. 38 THE PRIEST'S BROTHER Thrice in the night the priest arose From broken sleep to kneel and pray. " Hush, poor ghost, till the red cock crows, And I a Mass for your soul may say. " Thrice he went to the chamber cold, Where, stiff and still uncoffined, His brother lay, his beads he told, And " Rest, poor spirit, rest, " he said. Thrice lay the old p...riest down to sleep Before the morning bell should toll; But still he heard — and woke to weep — The crying of his brother's soul. All through the dark, till dawn was pale, The priest tossed in his misery, With muffled ears to hide the wail, The voice of that ghost's agony. At last the red cock flaps his wings To trumpet of a day new-born. The lark, awaking, soaring sings Into the bosom of the morn. The priest before the altar stands, He hears the spirit call for peace ; He beats his breast with shaking hands.
