To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When she'd begin to rage and tear, A blizzard was a tame affair ; You'd think a cyclone was a pet If once you lived with Nancy Bet. She stunned a vicious mule so quick He petrified and couldn't kick, I've seen her snap her teeth so hard The sparks would fly across the yard ; But since she used to be my wife, I wouldn't tell to save your life, The half or tenth how awful bad It was when she was real mad; No loving husband ever cares To talk about his home affairs, No matter what his darling does... — I thought I heard a skillet buzz ! XIII. Now this was forty years ago, (It lacks, perhaps, a month or so,) That Nancy Bet and I agreed To bind ourselves in word and deed ; And then, (as I have said before), I thought, in two or three months more, As sure as fate, with crutch and gout, The old man would " step down and out," But Fortune is a fickle dame, And oft has " Mis " before her name ; And thus she flirts with great and small And jilts her lovers, one and all. The fickle wench ! [ don't know when I'll ever trust her smiles again.
