To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
CCXLIX.
Whate er was placed within his care He guarded night and day ; If aught was lost, or far or near, He quickly led the way. He d starve ere he would steal his food, Yet knew not human laws, Or die by fire or field or flood, If in his master s cause.
HOUSEHOLDS AND INDUSTRY.
CCL.
To hear his bark of welcome greet When one of us came home, Or when a trusted friend he met, You would not think him dumb. He waked us with his warning growl If aught came to invade, Or with a loud, half-speaking ...howl, He called us to his aid.
CCLI.
Poor Ring ! He lived to be so old He lost all power of harm, But though no more so strong and bold, He still could growl alarm. At last came fate s unerring dart, And ended his career; His patient suffering touched the heart, His death brought many a tear.
CCLII.
And Tom, the most demure of cats, Oft crept amongst the crocks, Not to steal cream, but kill the rats.
He climbed up to the box, Tore the young martins from their nests, And dashed them to the ground With bleeding, palpitating breasts, For that poor Tom was drowned.
