What reading level is Shadows And Ideals : Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I thrust My curses, bitterer than gall, On all. I strive alone for other peace. Release From all the bitterness of life. The strife 'Twixt good and evil is unfair, And prayer Is not so soothing as one thinks ; The stinks Of vice fill life, of acrid scent And blent With hellish harmonies that tempt. Exempt No man is, and the soul will sin ; Begin, Eschew wrong first and I '11 adore ; Implore Your gods for proof, should I believe And grieve. I know the value of a tear ; Each year RAVAILLAC SPEAJC...S. Brings me new proof ; I grow more wise ; Mine eyes See through the darkness and the night. More light Beyond, beyond, by fancy seen. Rich sheen I can descry ; and I am glad. Yet sad. To say that on this gallful earth, Where birth Was given me, I now love to dwell ; To tell That though I can not bend the rod Of God, Or learn the lesson from above To love, That I can curse each living thing, And sing Of hideous days, and horrid nights. Their blights. And all the essences of sin Therein ; Gall mixed with tears, and tears with blood And mud ; SffADOlVS AND IDEALS.
