What reading level is Lyrics of the Heart With Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I cannot shield thee from the blight a bitter world may fling O'er all the promise of thy youth, the visions of thy spring; For, I would not warp thy gentle heart, each kindlier impulse ban, By teaching thee — what I have learned — how base a thing is man.
I cannot save thee from the griefs to which our flesh is heir, But I can arm thee with a spell, life's keenest ills to bear ; 1 may not Fortune's frowns avert, but I can bid thee pray For wealth this world can never give, nor ever take away.
...From altered Friendship's chilling glance, from Hate's envenomed dart, Misplaced Affection's withering pang, or " true Love's " wonted smart, I cannot save my sinless child; but I can bid him seek Such Faith and Love from heaven above as leave earth's malice weak.
162 THE YOUNGLING OF THE FLOCK.
But wherefore doubt that He who makes the smallest bird His care, And tempers to the new-shorn lamb the blast it ill could bear, Will still His guiding arm extend, His gracious plan pursue, And if He gives thee ills to bear, will grant thee courage too.
