What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And shuddering, I turned in haste to go From Hougomont. There 'twas as though the Pit Had vomited those battling fiends and lit The hellish contest, swaying to and fro The flames and smoke ! The blood ! The furious din Of cannonade ! The yells of deadly rage And shrieks of anguish faintly mingled in ! I turned in horror from that awful stage.
29 MONT ST. JEAN WATERLOO But stay ! 'Twere wrong to go and leave the brave Unsung, who are the poets' special care, For every man who treads that field s...hould spare A thought, a word, a song for those whose grave It is, whose life's blood all this glory gave The land, as well for those whose lives were spared, For on that morning all stood there prepared To die. Because they laughed and were not grave Thou thinkest that their lives were lightly held ?
Nay, look beneath the mask ! A flood of prayer From many thousand gallant hearts then welled Spontaneous, passionate. Aye ! thousands there Whose agony no mortal eye had seen When, in the night watch, as they pondered all They loved and faced the end which might befall, A tide impassable rolled in between And cut them off.
