To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Rank upon rank the people flee, Like leaves, before the keen-edged wind ; But they, but they, with hands entwin'd Care not, for thro' the glass they see Of wealth and wonder such a blaze That their hearts kindle as they gaze. 19 THE TOY-SHOP Majestic cruisers they behold, Sweeping triumphant o'er the seas ; Aeroplanes swaying on the breeze ; Horses at pasture on the wold ; Carts on their round with morning milk, And maidens all arrayed in silk ! Look, look ! cries one, that engine there Is driv...en by steam; and instantly They both are journey-bound to see Some far dream city's magic fair. By town and hamlet, hill and mead, Their train roars on with lightning speed. And see, the other cries, that fort! And on their ears the bugles blow ; Regiments of redcoats come and go, And guns discharge a fierce report. The walls are won, and lost and then Within a moment won again. 20 THE TOY-SHOP Rank upon rank the people flee, Like leaves, before the keen-edged wind- Are their souls dead, their senses blind?
