What reading level is English Metres book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
we're made so that we love First when we see them painted, things we have passed Perhaps a hundred times, nor cared to see; And so they are better, painted — better to us, Which is the same thing. (Fra Lippo Lippi 291-300) To assign a given piece of blank verse to the type it most closely resembles will be at least a step toward appreciating its metrical qualities. The blank verse of Shakespeare shows a gradual prog- ress from the first type, as in Richard ///, through the sec- ond, as in Juliu...s Caesar, to the third, as in Macbeth and later plays. This statement will not be borne out by every speech in a given play; it simply indicates the gen- eral tendency. It implies that Shakespeare began by care- ful comformity to metrical pattern, that he then brought expression and metrical pattern into perfect balance, neither dominating the other, and that later he made 44 metrical pattern conform to the demands of expression. His verse, that is, took on more and more the accents of actual speech.
