To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That land to which she promised me escape Myself discerned I, very far away.
" But rather so to do is best meseems : So long as yet the dowels hold the beams Fast in their place, so long will I abide Here and endure to suifer aU extremes.
146 Digitized by LjOOQiC BOOK FIFTH " But when my raft beneath the thrashing sea Is shattered, I will swim, since then for me No better plan can I foresee therein." Thus while his heart debated inwardly, On him the Shaker of the Earth a dread Billow upreared, ...huge, curKng overhead.
And smote him : and as when a gust of wind Strikes down upon a heap of corn outspread.
And shakes and scatters all the whirling corn.
So the long timbers were asunder torn ; But on a single spar he got astride.
As one who on a destrier's back is borne ; And quickly slipped from off him limb by limb The clothes that bright Calypso gave to him.
And tjdng the kerchief underneath his breast.
With outstretched hands, as one in act to swim, Dropped prone into the sea across the side.
