What reading level is Eros And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
55 Sin and repentance reign by turns, Maintaining various fight; And still the heart for follies burns, And still it loves the right.
Oft stands the soul in doubt to choose The world, or choose her prize, And still its onward way pursues, With half averted eyes.
Oh for thy help, my God, my life !
Force earth and sin to yield; Fain would I end my weary strife, Fain lay aside my shield.
Fain would I send no thoughts abroad In quest of false delight, But through the desert walk with God, Still kee...ping heaven in sight.
Not half so quick the swift winged fly Starts from the finger s touch away, As fleeting moments hasten by Impatient of delay.
" Abide with me, " we cry, "awhile Thou short-lived hour of joy and love: Tis gone, unheeding, many a mile Beyond the stars above.
No turnings back, no looks toward earth Delay its road to heaven s court; There, where it took its wondrous birth, It makes its last report.
O Time, of heaven thou Daughter dread, Sweet as earth s gladdest moments be, Help me more glad the sail to spread For that untraveled sea.
