What reading level is Lays And Lyrics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Though in his life he ne'er was partial To see his name on courts called Martial, Across his weather-beaten brow, Old Time had driven his iron plough ; And o'er a scalp, white, thin, and bare, His scythe had scarcely left a hair ; And ne'er a tooth was in his head But what the dentist had supplied ! A sand-glass — and this withered elf, Had passed for father Time himself ! — 28 LAYS AND LYRICS.
Yet still the vet' ran — what a notion !
Wish'd, hop'd, and pray'd — for what ? Promotion !
One birth...day went — another came — Still Hope played her delusive game ; His humble claims were unredressed — Promotion came not from the West, East, South, nor North ; — esprit de corps Within his bosom burned no more ; Despised — neglected — ' there's the rub, ' He died a poor heart-broken Sub ; And left this world in such disdain, 'Tis doubtful if he'll rise again !
29 LAYS AND LYRICS.
MAGGIE LAUDER.
ADDITIONAL STANZAS. (3) The cantie Spring scarce reared her head, And Winter yet did blaud her, Whan the Ranter cam to Anster fair.
