To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The host, Peter Badelin, was a man whom Nature seemed to have made as a sample for all publicans. He drank eternally ; morning, noon, and night, he was at his cups ; and he might have used Boniface's speech — " I have fed purely upon ale ; I have ate my ale, drank my ale, and I always sleep upon ale ;" only substituting for ale, (which was not drunk in Flanders,) wine, and the beer of the country. Peter was not ashamed lowing verse deserves most particularly to be rescued from tlie ob- livion t...o which modern bad taste has consigned this favorite song of our forefathers. The poet, after examining the comparative merits of wooden cans, glasses, and silver flagons— to all of which he prefers the leather bottle, as the masterpiece of drinking- veseels — comes at last to "the handled pot." " What say you to the handled pot?
No praise of mine shall be his lot ; For, when a man and wife's at strife, (As many have been in their life,) They lay their hands upon it both, And break the same, although they're loth : But, woe to them shall bear the guilt !
