What reading level is Philoctetes, And Other Poems And Sonnets book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The spells that bound me can no more cajole ; Weary already seems the scriptur'd scroll.
The restless stewards of superfluous time, — Up the steep Alpine precipice they climb To reach the eagle's scarp'd and rocky goal.
The famish'd tempest-beaten sigh for rest ; Dreams of low-lying isles and tufted palms Creep under the tired lids of seamen's eyes : Couch'd on soft cushions under Persian skies, The sated Eastern monarch flies to arms, Strapping the disused armor round his breast.
38 SONNETS.
T...HE SENTINEL OF ACRE.
A loNELY spot ! the sentmel of Gkxl I standi whate'er betide : bleak Powers they were, Implacable and stern, who placed me here ; With brazen shield and spear and massy rod Or mace injurious ; iron clad and shod, In frock of tempered steel and metal pure ; And ten times folded patience to endure, Tho' my red blood incarnadine the sod.
AU times far off I hear the thunder-roll Of battle on the mountains and the mere ; The shouting of the captains, — sweeter sound Than music in still chambers breath'd around ; — While each inglorious hour I linger here Wedges the iron deeper in my souL SONNETS.
