To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Aloft shalt thou see two slender firs on the left and on the right; They have overhung the mountain with the sum- mits of their might. And all the air is spicy with their fair needles green; And there runneth a spring of water the slender trees between. There turn and dismount from Dapple; to a tree the steed shalt thou tie.
[179] Raise thyself over the water-spring that bubbles up hard by, And look at thy face in the water. Thou shalt see when thou shalt die. " Marko obeyed. Aloft he looked on
... the left and on the right At the firs that overhung the mount with the sum- mits of their might, And all the air was spicy with the fair needles green.
There Marko halted Dapple in a little space be- tween, And to a fir tree in the midst the charger did he tie.
He raised himself o'er the water-spring that bub- bled up hard by ; And when Marko looked on the water, he saw when he should die.
He wept apace and spake apace: "Ah, lying world, fair flower Fair wast thou and too little have I roamed thee in my hour, Three hundred years ; and now must part from thy pleasure and thy power!" From his girdle the Prince Marko drew out the iron glaive, And he went to the steed Dapple, and Dapple's neck he clave, That Dapple might come never to a Turk, a prize of war, [180] And do him bitter service bearing water in the jar.
