What reading level is Bianca Poems And Ballads book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Close to the beach a fickle mountain stands. Whose inmost fated holds surrounding lands ; Hard by, within the bosom of a hill. There lies an ancient city slumbering still : Pompeii ! 'wakened relic of the past. Thy palaces hath been a tomb at last. True, true thou art a City of the Dead, Thy brilliancy of busy life hath fled ; A FRAGMENT. 45 Thy streets deserted^ tenantless thy halls. Vacant the portal seats within thy walls ; No gilded chariots rattle o'er the street. But all as Death within i...ts winding sheet. Here did the exiled wanderer love to roam, A truant from his fatherland and home ; As from his gaze yon aspect stole away. Inspired by heaven, he sang this simple lay. Enchanting Mem'ry, hie thee hence Upon thy ether wing ; Till thou hast pleased my ev'ry sense. Whilst of my home I sing. 46 THE EXILE Home of my heart ! my Island home My thoughts to thee do flee, For in whatever land or zone, They always cling to thee. There, is to me a hallowed part. More sacred than the rest ; For there lies one within whose heart My hopes were mirrored best.
