To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He rooted as on burning marl, When out of Hall he paced.
XII 'T was seen he hammered striding legs, And stopped, and strode again.
Now Vengeance has a brood of eggs.
But Patience must be hen.
XIII Too slow are they for wrath to hatch, Too hot for time to rear.
Old Kraken kept unwinking watch ; He marked his day appear.
BAIiLADS AND FO£MS OF TRAGIC LIFE 215 XIV He neighed a laugh, though moods were rough With standards in revolt : His nostrils took the news for snuff; His smacking lips for salt....
XV Count Louis* wavy cock^s plumes led His troops of black-haired manes, A rebel ; and old Kraken sped To front him on the plains.
XVI Then camp opposed to camp did thej Fret earth with panther claws For signal of a bloody day, Each reading from the Laws.
XVII *Forefend it, heaven I ' Count Louis cried^ ^ And let the righteous plead : My country is a willing bride.
Was never slave decreed.
XVIII ' Not we for thirst of blood appeal To sword and slaughter curst ; We have €k>d's blessing on our steel, Do we our pleading first.' 216 BALLADS AND POEMS OF TRAGIC LIFE XIX Count Louis, soul of chivalry, Put trust in plighted word ; By starlight on the broad brown lea.
