What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You stand upon the sheltering sand Of mortal life's uncertain day; You know not when your strip of land From neath your feet will slip away, "Thy fate is the common fate of all, Into each life some rain must fall." So says the Poet in his song.
And I fear me much he is not wrong.
But the sunniest day will always come After the shower of rain is done.
So transient sorrow, like the rain, Is followed by the light again.
Nor sunny climes, nor starry skies Will always greet our wondering eyes.
But "...all that's best of dark or bright" Is mellowed to our tender sight.
11 THE BIRTH When Roman eagles proud unfurled Their brazen wings far over the world ; While Rome in all her conscious pride, Surveyed her power extended wide, Judah groaning beneath her sway, Wished for the coming of the day When freedom from the galling chain Of Roman power might come again.
'Twas then the Judean world was fraught, With sanguine hope for what they sought, For prophets wise in days of old, The coming of a Prince foretold ; From David's line he was to spring.
