To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
November 5, 1863.
113 DAWN.
Dawn up the eastern sky had rippling run, And the pale stars were swooning, one hy one, Into the glory of the coming sun.
Our valley yet was dark : the tall steep hill Close by, stood gloomy, grand ; above it, still The blue paled, — primrose grew, — then, daffodil ;— Then like a tulip streaked : there seemed to fly Purple and crimson streamers in the sky, Proclaiming that the King of Day was nigh.
That sky was like the season ; — 'twas the prime Of primroses and vio...lets ; sweet time ! — Spring, evermore extolled in poets' rhyme.
Then on the Beacon Hill I could discern A glowing red : the pines appeared to burn ; Up-starting beams our low vale seemed to spurn.
So some men rise, with smiles that woo and wait On those whose greatness they would emulate : So overlooking all of low estate.
Standing in shadow thus, the thought arose — This dark hill's other side in sunshine glows ; So frowns the world on these, and smiles on those !
The dew, — Night's mournful tears, — lay on the ground ; The westward mountains slept in gloom profound ; And the Dee seaward ebbed, without a sound.
