What reading level is Starved Rock book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
[52] CHICAGO Chicago! by this inland sea In the land of Lincoln, in the state Of souls who held the nation's fate, City both old and young, I consecrate Your future years to truth and liberty.
Be this the record frail and incomplete Of one who saw you, mingled with the masses Along these magical mountain passes With restless yet with hopeful feet.
Could they return to see you who have slept These fifty years, who laid your first foundations!
And oh! could we behold you who have kept Their promi...ses for you, when new generations Shall walk this boulevard made fair In chiseled marble, looking at the lake Of clearer water under a bluer air.
We who shall sleep then nor awake, Have left the labor to you and the care Ask great fulfillment, for ourselves a prayer!
[53] THE WEDDING FEAST Said the chief of the marriage feast to the groom, Whence is this blood of the vine?
Men serve at first the best, he said, And at the last, poor wine.
Said the chief of the marriage feast to the groom, When the guests have drunk their fill They drink whatever wine you serve, Nor know the good from the ill.
