To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
66 THE PINE-TREE I AM that magian old, Phrygian Atys friend, and loved of Pan.
I am any god s, to loose or hold, But little am to man.
Thou never mayst divine me, Either when I rave, Chanting a hoarse stave Back to the ruffian mob That smite the helpless seas, Hurtling from the cave Of ^Eolus Hippotades Thou never canst divine me Then, or when the winds at length resign me, 67 LYRICS And, with a long, low sob, I sink into a sleep So sound and deep That thou wouldst say with a rapt breath, II Th...ere standeth, in a tree s shape, Death ! " But I am not Death s, nor fear to accost The Autumnal Frost, Whom he sends to admonish The sylvans all ; At whose beck, at whose call, Their garlands, grown sear and wannish, Fall fall !
If thou shouldst take from me this centred spear Wherewith I heavenward steer, My loss I can redeem : From under-ranks, with fadeless green bedecked, Slowly a new peer I choose me, and again erect King-shaft and steering-beam !
68 LYRICS I am great Pan s, Not thine, though thou mayst work me to thy plans, Of my green honors strip me, And bring me where the tempests clip me Naked, and reeling in dance Over the serried floor Of the dark sea !
