To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Where now are Philip's butchers, that fought with sword and flame? Where are the bloody hirelings that wrought his deeds of shame?
[91 Oh, many, drowned, are floating upon the water's face, And others quake in Bruges, bewailing their disgrace.
In Burgos, sick and troubled, King Philip fears anew The waning of an empire that cannot crush the few.
But here in joyous Leyden the bells sound loud and long; In place of sobs and wailing we meet but smiles and song.
O men rejoice for Freedom! A fight i...s fought and won; No more shall Spain enslave you ; the despot's day is done !
God's horn be high exalted! To Him we bow the knee, Who smote to earth the mighty and made our Leyden free !
[10] THE VENGEANCE OF DE GOURGES There was peace between King Philip and our Valois court of France, Gained to check the taint of Luther, leaving naught to time or chance.
Yet in war the cruel Spaniards sailed across the Western sea To the land of Carolina, where were men who would be free.
In his insolence of power, Philip vowed that all should heed How his royal wrath would punish those who dared to choose their creed.
