What reading level is Shelley the Man And the Poet book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And this must be the emblem and the sign Of what should be eternal and divine !
And like that black and dreary bell the soul, Hung in an heaven-illumined tower, must toll Our thoughts and our desires to meet below Round the rent heart, and pray — as madmen do ; For what? they know not, — till the night of death, As sunset that strange vision, severeth Our memory from itself, and us from all We sought, and yet were baffled. ' " The poem gives us Shelley's impressions of Byron and Venice, and it ...proves that he was able to record such impressions vividly and swiftly. The versification is very original and skilful. The sense overflows the couplets as in the Elizabethan and Jacobean poets, but it seldom rambles on or loses itself in helpless mazes after the manner of the Caroline heroic poems and " Endymion. " Shelley now began to show a new power of writing tersely, of saying things easy to remember ; and this poem con- tains one of the few famihar quotations that come from his works: — THE DEPARTURE TO ITALY 163 " Most wretched men Are cradled into poetry by wrong, Tiiey learn in suffering what they teach in song.
