What reading level is In This Our World, And Other Poems; book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Books that were written before women read — Pagan and Christian, satirists and sages — Read what the world has said !
There was no power on earth to bid you slacken The generous hand that painted her disgrace !
There was no shame on earth too black to blacken That much praised woman -face!
Eve and Pandora! — always you begin it — The ancients called her Sin and Shame and Death !
" There is no evil without a woman in it," The modern proverb saith 1 She has been yours in uttermost possession — • ...Your slave, your mother, your well-chosen bride — And you have owned, in million -fold confession, You were not satisfied.
46 IN THIS OUR WORLD.
Peace then ! Fear not the coming woman, brother !
Owning herself, she giveth all the more !
She shall be better woman, wife, and mother Than man hath known before !
BALLADE OF YE GENTIL MAYDE.
Shee was a mayde, a gentil mayde, Her hearte was softe and kynde, And yet shee lyked her horse's tayle Cut off behynde, behynde — Cut off full shorte behynde.
