What reading level is The English Poets volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
) The little piece of verse called Conscience is not bad in its quibbling way. When the Church was young and flourishing, Conscience ruled her. Men wearied of Conscience, and cut off the Con, leaving Science. Then came an age of ecclesiastical learning, DOUGLAS. 161 which lasted till the world ' thought that Science was too long a jape, ' and got rid of Set. Nothing was left now but ens, worldly substance, 'riches and gear that gart all grace go hence. ' The Church in Scotland did not retain ev...en ens long after the age of Douglas. Grace, on the other hand, waxed abundant.
The work by which Douglas lives, and deserves to live, is his translation of the Aeneid. It is a singular fruit of a barren and unlearned time, and, as a romantic rendering of the Aeneid, may still be read with pleasure. The two poets whom Douglas most admired of all the motley crowd who pass through The Palice of Honour were Virgil and Chaucer. Each of these masters he calls an a per se. He imitated the latter in the manner of his allegorical verse, and he translated the former with complete success.
