To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Spenser may be denied a statue as, to our shame, Cromwell was, by those that mislike his patriotism, or loathe his views, political or relig- ious, but as a master of allegory, as the Christian next after Dante, who has most effecflively presented the symbolic and real together, as the most exacT: 17 exponent of the ethic theory of his day, and, certainly, as the greatest of English Platonists he must ever claim our gratitude and respecft. IT is far from Spenser's strong but ill-omened tower in... Ireland, far from the rich arras-clad banquetting halls of the peerless Gloriana, where Sidney sung and Shakespeare a6led, to the dark noisome jail, where the simple but sore distradled spirit of the humble Bedfordshire tinker was able to bring forth from its deep treasury things new and old. The Pilgrim's Progress has passed through the whole world like Robinson Crusoe or Gulliver's Travels, and is one of that dozen of English clas- sics that are almost as well known in Paris and Moscow as they are in London or New York.
