To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
27 In the Piazza of San Petronio D ARK in the winter's crystal air arise Bologna's turrets, and above them laughs The mountain-slope all whitened by the snows. It is that mellowest hour when the sun His dying salutation on the towers And, Saint Petronius, on thy temple sheds, Towers whose battlements the broad-spread wings Of many passing centuries have grazed, And the grave temple's solitary peak. The adamantine sky is gleaming cold In its refulgence, and the air is drawn O'er the piazza like ...a silver veil That lightly brushes with caressing touch The threatening piles, whose grim walls gather round, Raised by our fathers' mail-encircled arms. 28 Still lingering on the mountain heights, the sun Looks o'er the scene; and languidly his smile Falls with suffusing tint of violet On the grey building stones and on the dark Vermilion brick, and seems to waken there The living soul of vanished centuries; And wakens in the rigid winter air A melancholy yearning for the glow Of spring-times past, of warm and festal eves, When here in the piazza used to dance The beauteous women, and in triumph home Returned the Consuls with their captive kings.
