To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And twenty years ago he lodged at the sign of the moon. . . .The Master of the Main has conquered the artist, the poet which I flatter myself to be. Yes, when the current of life does not overwhelm me I am, above all, a poet — And you understand how I have been charmed by this miraculous fisherman, who casts his golden nets across the boimdless main — hello ! — there goes an Alexandrine! And not half bad at that. I'll make a note of it. Strange, is it not, how they come of their own accord when... you speak of this epic man? Yes, epic! He has rehabilitated the billionaire, Joe. With him the caitiff capitalist enters into the great Heliconian heritage. He is Homeric ! He is .-Eschylean, I tell you !
Of this Master of the Main the ancients would have made a myth, a demi-god! No sooner do I see him than I dream of all the heroes of the Neptunian cycle, the great conquerors of old Ocean magni- fied by history and legend ; Jason, the Argonauts ; Xerxes, scourging the seas for resisting him ; Solomon, equipping vast fleets which brought back gold and aromatic spices from Ophir and Asiongaber ; the \'ikings, his real ancestors, driving their caravels to the con- quest of the world ; Charles V and his empire on which the sun never set ; Philip H, bending the waves under his Invincible Armada, but" what do they all weigh together in the balance with Archibald Robinson?
