To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
— THE GOOSE.
No more shall the bards in their verses approve That tyrant of birds, the fierce eagle of Jove ; No more shall the dove be the theme of their song, Or the nightingale, prido of the warbling throng ; No more shall the swan be the subject of praise.
Or the peacock of Juno give grace to their lays ; The sparrows of Venus no more shall they sing, Or the cuckoo extol, the sweet herald of spring ; But the goose — the fet goose — shall hereafter be sung, Each pen shall engage and still dw...ell on each tongue, For the goose in the annals of time you will find Was of old a domestic and friend of mankind.
When Rome to the Gauls seem'd abandoned by fate, A goose in the capitol rescu'd the state ; Though wily as foxes, and screened by the night, ^Twas a goose patriotic which put them to flight, And lest time should so noble an action efface Her image in silver was rais'd on the place. ^Twas this noble achievement suggested the use Of that princely diversion, the game of The Goose.
