What reading level is Greek Wayfarers, And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The piper plays his reediest, shrillest tune, And at his leisure Demetri, as though pacing in a rune, Treads out a measure.
The elders laugh: "Dance there, fantastic fellow ! Tread down the grapes, while harvest moon is mellow, Give thy feet wings, fly o'er the sunset billow At thy good pleasure!" The little glasses of brown resin-wine Are quaffed; beads slipping Through the Greek fingers, slender, brown, and fine, Accent his skipping.
42 EASTER DANCE AT MEGARA They nudge, to see his hand curve... on his shoul- der, They marvel as his dark eyes burn and smoul- der, And note his step less vague, his bearing bolder, And go on sipping.
Around him dance the peasants, pacing slow With rhythmic swinging, But in and out he threads their simple show 'Midst childish singing.
Reels past old bearded Greeks, their grave tales weaving, And fierce Wallachians come for Easter thiev- ing; Albanian women with bold bosoms heaving To children clinging.
Spell-bound, all watch him reel, and swerve, and bend; His dizzy spinning Dazzles their eyes.
