What reading level is Songs And Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" So ask no more, but calmly wait, And leave the stern decrees of fate To tell the rest ; But be ye sure to bar the door On evil thought, time cannot cure A sullied breast : An honest heart hath joy within, Tho' fortune's smile it may not win. And this I've found, — Vice bows e'en throned kings to dust, And thus goes the world around. " THE CHEVIOT HILLS. Wild Cheviot of die heathy breast, Thine are the hills I love the best ; Shrouding their grey heads in the sky. Parting the strong winds as t...hey fly. Oh ! how I loved thy crags to climb In boyhood's glad and reckless time, And loud my shouts of uncurbed glee Were mocked and mocked again by thee. 70 And how I loved to see the storm Bend o'er t!iee its gigantic form, With cloudy wing and eye of fire Sweeping the thunder for a lyre. How oft I paused in wending home To mark the torrent white with foam. Roaring along o'er hill and dale Hurrying to tell the sea its tale. The thunder cloud, the swollen flood, The ocean voice of the valley wood, The lonely tree that braved the blast Tho' black and bare its arms were cast ; The sullen scowl of the gathering night Unto my soul were all delight ; And oft when toying with the gale I longed o'er earth and sky to sail.
