What reading level is Poems And Sketches book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
blest and lioly is each thought That links my heart with those bright hours, When little gleesome children brought A flower- wreathed vine to deck our bowers', And ever loving, trusting, then, We built our arbours on the stream, Nor thought of sorrow yet to come.
But as the shadow of a dream.
IV.
And as we left the school-room door.
When the wild winds blew sharp and keen, Oh, how we danced and gamboled o'er The glittering robe of snow and sheen !
We loved the winters frosty breath, On icy pini...ons fleeting by ; — Ah ! now it seems the voice of death.
And every breeze awakes a sigh.
V.
Where are those smiling faces now, In school-girl days that beamed so bright ?
And where the teacher's noble brow.
We gazed upon with pure delight ; Gone, like the flitting, fleecy cloud, That drives along the azure skies ; — Gone, like the bud that bursts in bloom Then bows its head, and droops, and dies.
62 POEMS AND SKETCHES.
VI.
Some o'er the world's wide desert roam, Some plough the billowy ocean waves ,- But every echo tells of home, Of perished hopes and lonely graves, For not a heart that beats so high, As it were wont in other years ; The cheek is pale, and dim the eye.
