To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Who eyed my approach with the glances surly Of a dog who gathers himself to defend His bone from the claims of a passing friend. But a twinkle came in the eyes of each When I spoke to them in the Pushtu* speech. * Tha Afghan language.
160 PACKMAN'S LAW And when I announced I was no star Of the Government galaxy, But a humble miner come from afar To mine in a strange country, Their suspicion relaxed, their brows lost their frown, And with " Salaam to Your Honour, " they begged me sit down.
And t...hen I remembered my Omar Khayyam, How he aye kept a jug in the shade of the palm ; And I straightway declared that close at hand An elixir I had of a virtue grand. And sent to my tent for a bottle of port. Of an ancient, tawny, and fruity sort. And served to each a bounteous measure From the gurgling lips of my cobwebbed treasure.
They quaffed it down with a hearty will. And never a drop on the way did they spill. Then as one old friend will speak to another, They welcomed me as a long lost brother.
