To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If in thy bosom thou dost feel The love thine acts deny, Yea, by the love thou bearest me, Oh, set me from this promise free. " But Hera's subtle words had brought Their deadly mischief now.
With eyes cast down as if in thought, Serene and placid brow, "Fair lord, thou knowest my desire, Its due fulfilment I require. " Then o'er his face displeasure's veil Came like a funeral pall. "Thou stubborn maid, will naught avail? On thee the bolt must fall. But sad and lone this heart will be, O foolish..., lovely Semele. " 69 With look foreshadowing her doom, He turns his face away From that fair wilful maiden whom The gods perverse still sway.
Then as a meteor in the night Is quenched, he vanishes from sight.
Alarm hath seized the trembling maid At his abrupt farewell Who erst his partings long delayed, In burning words to tell How her mere presence filled his soul With ecstasy beyond control.
Then mindful of his parting words And ominous despair, Her fears, like trenchant flaming swords, Pierce through that bosom fair.
