What reading level is Lyrics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
44 LYRICS.
The king shall arise from the tomb where he lay.
Once shrouded in vesture of regal array ; He comes not in grandeur, he takes not a throne.
But stands with the humblest — unaided — alone.
Lo ! then the poor peasant who went from his toil, To sleep 'neath the turf of his own native soil.
Shall rise with the noblest, the brightest, the best.
Who laden with honors were borne to their rest.
Ah ! many will pass to the regions of night, Who moved with the gayest in scenes of delight ; And ...many a heart that here knew not a care.
May live there in anguish and deepest despair.
O seek ye not then the false honors of earth.
And love not its wealth, and its titles of birth ; For many a prize to the poor shall be given, The uncrown'd of earth shall be highest in heaven.
45 THE CHILD'S DEPARTURE.
*' His young brothers and sisters were then called around his bed, and in a familiar family tune were sung those beautiful words, When I can read my title clear To mansions in the skies, I '11 bid farewell to every fear, And wipe my weeping eyes.
