What reading level is How He Died And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
, of Melbourne, "for private circulation only. " It is an unpre- tentious booklet of 50 pages, small 8vo. The poem opens in the flowing line of " Locksley Hall, " in which measure one of the stories is told ; the other, " a tale within a tale, " being an interlude in octosyllabic lines. The imagery is occasionally strained and the construction often faulty ; but there are some passages of great beauty, and there is ample evidence of genuine poetic feeling and imaginative power. It was reviewed ...with mild praise by several Australian papers, eulogised by the Sydney Bulletin and noticed by, apparently, only one English paper, which, how- ever, credited the author with a " vivid and picturesque imagination, " and stated that there was much to praise and little to blame. As far as I can ascertain, Farrell's first contributions to the Sydney Bulletin appeared in 1882. In the issue of the 5th August of that year were printed some satirical verses entitled " An Auto-da-Fe, " dealing, in a thin disguise, with an incident which had aroused considerable feeling in Albury.
