What reading level is A Study of Versification book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There is a lapidary concision like that of an Attic Inscription in these three lines of Emerson's : — No fate, save by the victim's fault, is low, For God hath writ all dooms magnificent.
So guilt not traverses His tender will.
The unrimed quatrain is infrequent in English verse ; and yet a few stately specimens are available.
Here is one from Emerson : — RIMELESS STANZAS 179 There is a time when the romance of life Should be shut up, and closed with double clasp: Better that this be done befor...e the dust That none can blow away falls into it.
In these little lyrics, the ear has scarce time to awaken to the expectancy of rime before the poem comes to its end. But when the lyric consists of several stanzas the absence of the rime is soon noted ; and although this may be forgiven, still it is likely to be more or less disconcerting, especially if the stanza chosen is familiar, as in this " Etching " of Henley's : — Two and thirty is the plowman ; He 's a man of gallant inches, And his hair is close and curly, And his beard ; But his face is wan and sunken, And his eyes are large and brilliant, And his shoulder blades are sharp, And his knees.
