To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Can't take your regular rations?" He had a fellow just as bad, Twin brothers in a tale, The vexed Khedive exclaimed, "Bedad, I'll give these louts a sail.
THE TRUANTS. 51 "Britannia one shall have let's see, Columbia the other, And that will fix them to a T, The daughter and the mother. " So one nods o'er the busy Thames, And one o'er Central Park.
These hieroglyphic, heathen gems Ambiguous and dark.
Embossed with mystery profound They stare upon each morn, As if they meant to hang around Till ...Gabriel blows his horn.
52 YUBA DAM.
YUBA DAM.
THE sun was shimmering all the West, And gilding all the yellow main, And casting shadows from the crest Of gilded mountains to the plain, As laboring up a water-course A traveler pricked his weary horse; When all at once upon his sight Burst a fair village, clean and bright.
He asked a miner, whom he met, If he could give its name : "You bet !" "Pray do, my friend, and do not sham. " The miner answered, "Yuba Dam/' "Kind, gentle friend, do not abuse My ignorance; I cry a truce To thy bold wit ; come, tell me true, I would not ask it if I knew, But I, dear sir, a stranger am/' Quick roared the miner, "Yuba Dam I" Disheartened, on the stranger pressed, And overtook a mincing dame, With flaxen hair and silken vest, And begged of her the village's name.
