To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
— Or how on this same deck, Whose flaming planks blood-boultered tilt to wreck, The dance went round to music, and how shone For English grey, black eyes of Lebanon ?
But Eastward and still east the World is thrown Like a mad hunter seeking dawns unknown Who plunges deep in sparkless woods of gloom. Lebanon long hath turned into night's womb And through her stelled casements pass new dreams : Thee too from those last no-more-rival beams Earth rolleth back. Alone O ship, O flower, O flame, thou ...sailest for a moth-weak hour !
They come at last, the bird-soft pattering feet ! Flame high, old ship ; the Fair throng up to greet Thy splendid doom. See the long spirits, curled Beside their dead, stand upright free of the world ! And seize the bright shapes loosed from blood-warm sleep, They, the true ghosts, whose eyes are fixed and deep !
O ship, O fire, O fancy! A swift roar Has rent the brow of night. Thou nevermore Shalt glide to channel port or Syrian town ; Light ghosts have danced thee like a plummet down, And, swift as Fate through skies with storm bestrewn, Dips out ironical that ship New Moon.
