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

Thou earnest in pomp and in pride, And Europe looked on with dismay ; But the sons of the Moslem thy fury defied, And they drove thee, stern spoiler, away. Go, hide thy dark pinion in coldness and gloom, For the arrows from Haemus have broken thy plume Back, ye lawless invaders ! ye slaves, Who came in your panoplied might, Ye legions who loaded the Danube s broad waves, And exultingly rushed to the fight !
* The church of Sancta Sophia was built by the Emperor Justinian. I sixth century.
TIME.
... 169 Back, back to your ices and snows, In defeat, in dishonour, end shame ; No fair hands with laurel shall circle your brows, No bard raise the song to your fame ! And lo, while ye throng to that proud river s banks, How fiercely the Delhis will hang on your ranks !
And hail to thy spirit undaunted, Thou boast of the Ottoman line ! Thine eye hath not quivered, thy heart hath not panted, Proud Soldan, what honours are thine ! Go, look on the tombs of thy fathers, Where the wide-spreading cypresses frown ; And swear that whenever war s hurricane gathers, Thou wilt not disgrace their renown !
