What reading level is The Brownies At Home book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
No old indentures can he found To prove they were to masters bound, Who boxed them well about the ears For dulling saws or breaking shears; No one has claimed in note or will To him they owe their wondrous skill, Or through his fostering care had gained The honored place they have attained.
62 THK BROWNIES IN MAY.
No strong trades-unions, old or new, Their sheltering anas around them threw, But through tin- dust of centuries dead, With skilful hand and cunning head, They rose equipped for every... task That night could bring, or need could ask A baud, indeed, to which one turns When hope into the socket burns, And other hands than mortal may Take up the tools we fling away.
So work went on as moments flew, For much the Brownies had to do.
They put the hat-rack in the hall, The calendar upon the wall, And hoisted up the ancient clock Into its niche without a shock ; Then wound it up, and set it right, According to the time of night ; For though the Brownies never bear A watch, or any such affair, The rooster knows not better when To crow, and rouse the sleeping hen, Than do the cunning Brownies know The flitting moments as they go.
