To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Good society, in poesy, was born with Marot, with FrancisI. , and his sister Marguerite, with the Renaissance: much will still haveto be done to bring it to perfection, but it exists and will never ceaseagain. . . . Marot, a poet of wits rather than of genius or of greattalent, but full of grace and breeding, who has no passion, but is notdevoid of sensibility, has a way of his own of telling and saying things;he has a turn of his own; he is, in a word, the agreeable man, thegentleman-like man,... who is bound to be pleasant and amusing, and whodischarges his duty with an easy air and unexceptionable gallantry. " There we have exactly the new character which Marot, coming betweenVillon and Ronsard, gave in the sixteenth century to French poesy. Wemay be more exacting than M. Sainte-Beuve; we may regret that Marot, whilst rescuing it from the streets, confined it too much to the court;the natural and national range of poesy is higher and more extensive thanthat; the Hundred Years' War and Joan of Arc had higher claims.
