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

Earth receives Gladly the thickening mantle ; and the green 8S0 And tender blade, that fear'd the chilling blast, Escapes unhurt beneath so warm a veil.
In such a world, so thorny, and where none Finds happiness unblighted ; or, if found, Without some thistly sorrow at its side; 335 It seems the part of wisdom, and no sin Against the law of love, to measure lots With less distinguish' d than ourselves } that thus We may with patience bear our moderate ills.
And sympathize with others suffering
...more. 340 111 fares the traveller now, and he that stalks In ponderous boots beside his reeking team.
The wain goes heavily, impeded sore By congregated loads adhering close To the clogg'd wheels; and in its sluggish pace 345 Noiseless appears a moving hill of snow.
The toiling steeds expand the nostril wide, While every breath, by respiration strong Forced downward, is consolidated soon Upon their jutting chests. He, form'd to bear 350 The pelting brunt of the tempestuous night, With half-shut eyes, and pucker' d cheeks, and teeth Presented bare against the storm, plods on.
