We read this in school in like the 7th grade. When the teacher read out something to the tune of "I've soiled the field from which I had sprung" I gave a little laugh and the teacher stopped and asked the class if anyone else knew what that meant. Not a single other kid had a clue, or at least didn't want to answer.
