What reading level is Some Verses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This was my dream the waking proved not so For love came like a flower, and grew apace ; I saw it blossom tenderly and frail Till the dear Spring had run its eager race, Then the rough wind tossed wide the petals red ; The seeds fell far in soil beyond my pale. I know not, now, if love be lost, or dead.
EVENING AT WASHINGTON THE purple stretches of the evening sky Lean to the fair white city waiting here, Flecking with gold the marble's lifted tier, Down the blue marsh where crows to Southward ...fly. Flanked by dim ramparts, where the tide dreams by, High from the city's heart, a lifted spear, In its straight splendour makes the heavens seem near, Symbol of man-made force that shall not die. To the tall crest we gaze in self-command, Assured the world's our own and we may dare To raise our Babel thro* forbidden aisles And hold the skirt of knowledge in our hand, Great in our moment, spurn the world's despair ; While Heaven looks down through calm unmeasured miles.
22 LOVE'S KISS Kiss me but once and in that space supreme My whole dark life shall quiver to an end, Sweet Death shall see my heart and comprehend That life is crowned and in an endless gleam Will fix the colour of the dying stream That Life and Death may meet as friend with friend An endless immortality to blend ; Kiss me but once, and so shall end my dream.
