What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such were the tears that generous Athens shed 6 O'er patriot chiefs, and sons untimely dead, As from her gates along the crowded road Weeping she pass'd to valour's last abode ; While in the race of glory, sire to son The torch pass'd onward as his course was done ', Then sank contented with the meed she gave, The sacred honours of a Soldier's grave.
So grateful Science o'er the marble weeps Where her loved Granta's good Maecenas sleeps : 6 See the splendid description of an Athenian Funeral an...d the Ceramicus, Thucyd. Ii. 34.
7 For the race of the Xafiiracotyopia, see Lucret. Ii. 71.
22 DEATH OF H. R. H.
Oh, might her tears his silent guerdon be, And fall like dews around his memory !
Had he but perish'd when in Youth's bright hours With blameless step he trod her classic bowers, And while she gazed with all a mother's pride, The princely flower had languish'd, droop'd, and died, Yet had she wept, and bade her praises bloom Like funeral garlands o'er his early tomb : But when he sank as Autumn suns to rest, And years had bound him to her grateful breast, Hers shall be grief moi - e sacred and more deep, Tears such as orphans o'er a parent weep, And the pale Muse to deck his grave unbind The wreath that round her youthful brows he twined s, While Learning's pious hand enrols his fame By royal Henry's side, and Margaret's saintly name.
