What reading level is On the Road Home Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" So came the second missive, between the stars that burn, The steadfast warders of the night, each in its ordered turn ; And she set her heart in order, she searched her soul to see If any evil thing by chance in lurking haunt might be.
She knelt in lowly vigil, and her pleading prayer went forth, But came apace no messenger from South land or from North.
She questioned Life, she questioned Death, she asked all mystery, But none could tell her of the gift that erst her own would be.
And while ...she waited, ill at ease, the song died on her lips, The flowers faded, and the light of noonday knew eclipse j 70 A shadow crept athwart the floor, the door swung open wide, And the messenger the King had sent was standing at her side.
Alas ! That messenger had brought a gleam ing sword of woe, That reft the golden links of love, and laid the dearest low.
She shivered, mute and desolate, crushed under blinding pain ; Could this be Heaven's messenger, to cleave her life in twain ?
Then the day grew as the midnight, and the midnight as the day, Nor sun nor stars shone over her, upon the weary way.
