What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She that is fair, though never vain or proud, Whose taste refined even female friends admire, Dressed not for show, but robed in neat attire ; 98 She who has learned, with mild, forgiving breast, To pardon frailties, hidden or confest ; True to herself, yet willing to submit. More swayed by love than ruled by worldly wit ; Though young, discreet, — though ready, ne'er unkind, Blessed with no pedant's, but a Woma7i^s mind ; — She wins our hearts, towards her our thoughts incline, So at her door ...go leave my Valentine. 99 BURIAL OF A GERMAN EMIGRANT'S CHILD AT SEA. No flowers to lay upon his little breast, No passing-bell to call his spirit home, But gliding gently to his place of rest, Parting, 'mid tears, at eve, the ocean foam. No turf was round him, — but the lifting surge Entombed those lids that closed so calm and slow While solemn winds, like a cathedral dirge, Sighed o'er his form a requiem sad and low. 100 Ah, who shall tell the maddening grief of love, That swept her heart-strings in that hour of woe 1 Weep, childless mother, but O look above For aid that only Heaven can now bestow.
