To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" He ceased. She stood alone.
Far through the morn the horn of Eochaidh blew, Outspeeding runners hot with glad return.
From post to post goes welcoming halloo : Far off the shouldered spear-heads dance and burn Through smother of wheels, and marching men that strew Their wake with dust and song, and storm at last Round dun and liss, their prosperous journey past.
34 ETAIN THE BELOVED And all that day go question and reply, Twin bodkins looping up the stuff of life: And all that dusk, warm chee...k and glancing eye Blow up love's ruddy peat in man and wife : And all that night, harps throb and warpipes cry Around the king, enthroned in joy complete, Etain beside him, Ailill at his feet.
But through the songs of praise that round him swell, One voice to him has music sweeter far.
Close to his heart she now the tale doth tell Of duty done, and love escaped a scar ; But not of that deep hour, unspeakable With visitation from beyond the world, Shut in her heart, a blossom closely curled.
On Eochaidh's royal brow sits glad content That she, fate's minister to Ailill's pain, Who dared in faith the perilous descent, Now stands more white against averted stain.
