To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Never turning aside one moment, He keeps his tryst with the dead !
How gently the moonlight is falling On the forehead, white and bare.
And the hands that were clasped in passion.
Are folded as if in prayer !
The eyes look above and beyond us, And beauty we can not see Is vouchsafed to the beggar's vision, But hidden from you and me.
Let him rest in the pauper's corner.
Whose stones are mossy and grim, For earth with its show and its honor, Is nothing now unto him !
EDITH GRAY.
OH, Edith Gray, ...I've loved you well, Yet why should I the tale rehearse ?
Full well I know that you would scorn Alike the singer and his verse.
For I am a poor poet born, My idle rhymes my only boast; Your father sits with merchant kings, His vessels trade on every coast.
And day by day, and hour by hour, He seeks for you a worthy mate; But worthiness he finds alone Among the titled and the great.
And I, a poet, poor but proud As any prince in all the land, Might vainly plead, sweet Edith Gray, And vainly sue for your white hand.
