To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Watching the mother ; these her sisters mighty, Dione, Khea, Themis, Amphitrite, Who stood around with comforts ; yet they fonr A look of melancholy foresight wore, For they were come from Titan husbands pent Beneath the light in endless 'prisonment, And who had uttered groaning prophecies.
That now a new usurper should arise To keep their old dominion in suspense, And more confine their pallid influence ; Another, from that fated kindred come.
Which gave its life by pitifiillest doom To its di...splacers : much remorseftd blame Had those grave goddesses before they came.
Because they ever did descend to love The cruel brotherhood of younger Jove.
And yet not willingly, not willingly Had they for love foregone their sovereignty.
Not willingly betrayed the older race ; But so was it to be ; the old gave place.
Though great and beautiful they were, to new.
Greater, more beautiful ; it must ensue In the world's progress ; and the old must yield And settle them in peace, though many a field Of Titan battle be remembered still.
