What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For perhaps the most odious thing upon earth Is an African prince in the land of his birth, With his negative calf and his convex shin, Triangular teeth and his pungent skin, So bloated of body, so meagre of limb, Of passions so fierce and of reason so dim, So cruel in war, and so torpid in peace, So strongly addicted to entrails and grease, 33 So partial to eating by morning light The wife that had shared his repose overnight, In the blackest of black superstition downtrod, In his horrible rit...es to his beastly god, With their bloody and loathsome and hideous mystery- But that has nothing to do with the fish-story.
Happy old Edward his labor was done, With nothing to do but sit in the sun, And free to follow his darling wish Of playing his fiddle and catching his fish. He had earned his playtime with labor long, And so, like the other Ned of the song, "He laid down the shovel and the hoe, " And caught up the fiddle and the bow.
Now I cannot say That his style of play Would suit the salons of the present day, For the tours de force of the great Paganini Have never found favor in old Virginny.
