To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Women, women, come hither every woman.
The faces disappear from the upper windows: eleven women appear on the colonnade, some from each side, and descend the stair rapidly.
Get on your knees about us — both knees.
Laodice and Danae 35 Stand up, my Danae, be overbearing.
Women, when any woman has a kingdom And is a regnant being, does it not suit That in the disposition of her state Women should figure her and power afar?
This kingdom I control has thrones of cities, So many that I, when I would... sit therein, Must cast my shadows there : and chief of these Is Babylon the nest of bygone things.
'Tis to that Babylon I now appoint My bosom's clasp, my Danae, for satrap ; She shall oppress among dead queens and gods, Keep house where sheer dominion walks, command Enamelled palaces with copper roofs.
Pillars with gardens for their pediments — Staircase for Anakim in Babylon.
And when ye are as dear to me as she Ye shall advance upon such larger ways.
Danae.
O, what is this you do ? I am lost in it.
