To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Clanged the grim doors with a roar as she glided in ; Voiceless aroimd stood the listening group, tremulous ; And hark, from the heart of the cave Sound not of Pan's fluten music — Sound of such wail as to haunted dreams wander from Lands lost to light, where Cocytus winds drearily, — O never till earth hide their urns, They who have heard shall forget it.
Wide flew the doors of the fatal cave, noiselessly, Into the dark rushed the moonbeams inquisitive : The moonbeams rushed into the dark, Rus...hed \dth the moonbeams the lover.
White at the verge of the gulf, black and fathomless, Niched in her shrine, stood the statue of Artemis, And lo, at her feet lay the reed Vowed by the Haunter of Forests.
94 Lost Tales of Miletus.
Close by the reed was the girFs wreath of myrtle-buds, Every bud withered save one, freshly blossoming, And close to the garland a leaf Tom from an ivory tablet ; These the sole tokens that told of the vanished one.
Few were the words that were writ on the ivory : * To Glaucon my wealth on the earth ; With me I take what he gave me.' Many, since then, say the maiden was innocent, That her rash love roused the wrath of cold Artemis ; And they who would slanders revive Only dare hint them in whispers.
