To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' Your old earth, ' they say, ' is very dreary ; Our young feet, ' they say, ' are very weak ! 30 Few paces have we taken, yet are weary — Our grave-rest is very far to seek. Ask the aged why they weep, and not the children ; For the outside earth is cold ; And we young ones stand without, in our bewildering, And the graves are for the old. * 36 E. B. BROWNING 93 * True, ' say the children, ' it may happen That we die before our time ; Little Alice died last year — her grave is shapen Like a sn...owball, in the rime. 40 "We looked into the pit prepared to take her : Was no room for any work in the close clay ! From the sleep wherein she lieth none will wake her.
Crying, " Get up, little Alice ! it is day. " If you listen by that grave, in sun and shower, 45 With your ear down, little Alice never cries ; Could we see her face, be sure we should not know her. For the smile has time for growing in her eyes : And merry go her moments, lulled and stilled in The shroud by the kirk-chime ! 50 It is good when it happens, ' say the children, ' That we die before our time.
