What reading level is Poems And Essays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
who that saw thee in thy prime Thought of the fate that would be thine, And that the deadly hand of Time Would lay thee low?
How short thy life — how soon decay Its light and beauty swept away, " To dumb f orgetfulness a prey " For evermore!
Thy dust, blown by the whistling wind, In the cold earth will burial find.
With myriad millions of thy kind, Long gone before.
A wind-blown, worthless thing — and yet More costly than a coronet.
To him who in his heart shall set The golden thought Which, li...ke a precious jewel, lies Beneath th}^ perishing disguise — The magic stone the worldly-wise So long have sought.
Like thine our youth is fresh and green; Our summer time a merry scene; The sky is bright with wondrous sheen, Our path with flowers; What splendor circles our estate!
How leaps the heart, with hope elate!
How little do we dream of fate, And wintry hours!
THE LESSO^N OF THE LEAF. 69 But well thou tellest, little leaf, Life's pride is vain, its glory brief !
Cold blow the whirling blasts of grief, And lay us low; Death comes to palace and to cot; Our dust will share the common lot, And Oh, how soon it is forgot Beneath the snow!
