To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As wise as wary they! Yon shadowy cove Once caught the glimmer of their council-flames; And yonder, in that dim primeval grove.
They lurked to gain their sanguinary aims.
Then came Champlain and gallant Frontenac, As daring as the keen conquistador.
And ever, where they voyaged, upon their track Trailed, like a banner, the black smoke of war.
England and France! the vision will not pale; — The lilied oriflamme, the double cross; '* Saint George!" and "Saint Denis!" — adown the gale Surge upon s...urge the cries of conflict toss.
Ticonderoga felt the bloody brunt, And grizzly cannon roared their deafening psalm, When Abercrombie flung his fearless front Upon the bristling bastions of Montcalm.
Another thrilling scene that fortress knew When, ere the Maytime morning's earliest glow, Bold Ethan Allen and his fearless few Seized its embattled walls without a blow.
Still can we hear him ; — in the gray light see The firm-set features of his mountain boys; "Up with your firelocks, you who'll follow me!" And every soldier held his gun at poise.
