To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What is the under- lying cause of these defects of style ?
There are two main causes. The first springs from Browning's theory of poetry. Browning's theory of poetry is a serious one. Like all truly great artists, he has uniformly recognised the dignity and responsibility of art. With him poetry is not the manufacture of a melodious jingle, nor the elaboration of pretty conceits ; it is as serious as life, and is to be approached with reverent and righteous purpose. It is, moreover, the noblest... of all intellectual labours, and should therefore minister to the intellect not less than to the emotion.
Into his poetry Browning has put his subtlest and deepest thought, and he uniformly puts a higher value on the thought than the method or manner of its ex- pression. In " Pauline," his earliest poem, pubHshed in 1832, he says, with a true forecast of his own powers and limitations.
So will I sing on, fast as fancies come ; Rudely, the verse being as the mood it paints.
With him the sense is more than the sound, the sub- ROBERT BROWNING.
