What reading level is Sacred Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His more than four-score years had passed, His strength was toil and sorrow : He lay upon the bed of death, He might not see to-morrow.
The pleasures and the cares of life Were spread before his eyes : On other side were opening scenes And joys beyond the skies.
But there was one whom all on earth Could not shut out from view : She stood before him clear and bright, As one most good and true.
And thought of her with tears of love Would fill his failing eyes, And almost seem'd to antedate The jo...ys of Paradise.
'Twas she, who in his infancy Had borne him in her arms, 83 And lavished on his later years A mother's love and charms, mother dear, he seem'd to say, My life is fading fast, And I am looking round to find Some comfort at the last.
1 cannot hope that thy dear hand Will smooth my furrowed brow ; Thou art at rest among the saints In peace and safety now.
I cannot hope that thy fond lips Will press the parting kiss : But, ray mother, may not mine Be yet a brighter bliss ?
Beyond this dreary vale of tears There is a world above — The home of everlasting rest And peace and joy and love.
