What reading level is Poems You Ought to Know book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Seam and gussett, and band, Band and gusset and seam, Till over the buttons I fall asleep, And sew them on in a dream !
****** Oh, men, with sisters dear!
Oh, men, with mothers and wives! It is not linen you're wearing out But human creature's lives! Stitch — stitch — stitch, Tn poverty, hunger and dirt. Sewing at once, with a double thread, A shroud as well as a shirt.
85 THE OLD OAKEN BUCKET.
BY SAMUEL WOOD WORTH.
Samuel Woodworth was born at Scituate, Mass. , in 1785, and was the son of a fa...rmer and revolutionary soldier. He had no educational advantages until taken up by a clergyman, who had read some of his poetical writings and who gave him instruction in the classics. Wood- worth was apprenticed to a printer, and later published a paper of his own, of which he was editor, printer, and carrier. Later he removed to New York, where he edited magazines and wrote a number of vol- umes. His patriotic songs of the war of 1812 were widely popular. His "Old Oaken Bucket" will always hold its place among the choicest songs of America.
