To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


I, who through four long tragic years, Had never yielded once to tears, Clasping her hand, so kind and true, Wept with the rain, and she wept too.
Ere daybreak, with increasing light, Evolved from disappearing night The morn, in radiant splendor dressed, I, too, had started for the West." Ere the conclusion of the narrative, Through every crack and cranny of the door The snow had sifted in, as through a sieve, And piled in little cones upon the floor.
Without, the raging tempest still assailed
...; Within, the fire to glowing coals had failed.
All smoked, and with their eyes on Dad McGuire, Waited for some one else to build the fire.
Such close attention had his tale received, It seemed as if 'twas partially believed; Few of the tales which we enjoy the most In verity, may that distinction boast.
58 The Passing of the Storm The dying embers shed their mellow glow Upon the agfed face of Dad McGuire, As he swept out the little piles of snow And laid a hemlock log upon the fire.
Then followed disconnected colloquies And witticisms in the form of jest; The joke is always where the miner is, The form of levity he loves the best, For cutting truths have thereby been conveyed, Where delicacy all other forms forbade.
