What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
My mother's ugliest brat was I, Except my sister Tillie — But O ! I 've got the Yankee grit To soon dispose of Willie." 234 Jilted Willie He had two yellow, squinting eyes, His hair was rather sorrel, And pimples made his face appear As red and rough as coral.
He told the artless Bess that she Was fairer than a lily, And that the Lord had brought him out From Maine to rival Willie.
He bragged about his farm at home.
His wealth in land and cattle.
When Mammon fights on Cupid's side.
They're boun...d to win the battle.
He probed her heart with golden dart.
Her manner grew less chilly.
He married her, and carried her, In triumph, off from Willie.
Now, Willie seeks the silent glen And spends his days in weeping ; And oft his sighs are heard to rise When happier men are sleeping.
May Fortune make that Yankee's life A rough road, harsh and hilly!
He's done an awful spurt of work — He 's broke the heart of Willie.
Fair-mount, January 10, 186S 235 tippling Heed not thou Temptations' speech, Nor drink the rosy wine- Its poison to the soul doth reach, Though brightly it may shine.
