To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is as if poetry, even after centuries of separation, still remembered the home of her childhood, and went wandering back in search of her long-lost sister. An interesting subject of thought this kinship between poetry and music, on which, however, I cannot linger, but must turn to the one kind of poetry in which they are still combined. And nowhere is that union more perfect than in the national songs of Scotland.

...shall now regard them. While they interest us by representing, in the best sense of the word, the poetry of the people, they win our admiration by their literary excellence. Often, the songs or poems which have found most favour with the poor are not excellent, while those which are excellent have not pleased the poor.
The greatest poets of our country, Milton, Spenser, Wordsworth, even Shakespeare — these require at least some education for their appreciation. How- ever wide be their audience, it is still limited.
