What reading level is Lays And Legends book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

War ! War ! War !
Treading in footsteps steeped in gore.
Bringing famine and misery ; Lighting the earth with a lurid flame, And making even Christ's holy name But a ghastly mockery.
Would that we all who profess that name Would ponder well on the sin and shame, On the terrible guilt, before, With a false desire and selfish aim. And a feverish thirst for that thing called fame.
We plunge in the sea of war.
PEACE.
Come, holy Peace, enrobed in spotless white ! Speak to the nations words of heaven
...ly might; Bid carnage cease, And o'er the tumult spread thy wings of light : Come, holy peace !
Thy thankless children spurned thy fond embrace, And set the demon battle in thy place; Now our sad eyes Would fain behold once more thy smiling face : Bright Peace, arise !
Come, holy Peace ! begin thy glorious reign ; Banish the battle's tumult, strife and pain : Come, spirit blest, Gather mankind beneath thy wings again, And give us rest.
THE DYING SOLDIER.
The day was done, the fatal field was fought ; Upon the ground a thousand manly hearts Lay still and cold, ambition's sacrifice.
