What reading level is Afterglow Later Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Three crosses on dark Calvary's hill, Three awful shadows thrown ; Three mothers, faint with anguish sore, Making to God their moan.
But they, those other mothers, who Bent down to comfort them? They cowered afar ; they had not dared To touch your garment's hem.
36 THREE CROSSES Even if in mockery, your Son Was crowned and hailed as king ; While theirs disgraced, dishonored they, Past all imagining!
They loved like you ; their sons had lain Like yours in sinless rest, Cradled to slumber, soft a...nd deep, On each fond, faithful breast.
Yet now the terror and the shame, The agony untold, The deathless mother-love, unquenched By horrors manifold!
Three crosses on the dreadful hill, Three shadows downward thrown ; Mother of Sorrows, thou hast borne Not one sharp pang alone!
ON THE HEIGHT LIKE some great Merlin of an elder day, In robes of glistening samite clasped with pearl, White-haired, white-bearded, self-contained, and lone, Thy radiant forehead lifted to the skies, Majestic in pure splendor, thou dost sit, Monarch of mountains, while the lesser kings, Only less kingly than thyself, as if In some high presence-chamber, proudly wait, On either hand, the setting of the sun.
