What reading level is The Flowers of Spring a Poem book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How delicately fine the scents that come From the broad bosom of the walnut-tree ; How cool its leaves, and soothing is the hum Of the winged hosts, there holding jubilee. With waving plumes hung all around, and sweet As blended nosegays newly culled and fresh, See lilacs o'er the sheltered pathway meet, And twine their branches in an odorous mesh. More gay than sweetly scented, drooping low Their gaudy spikes, like vanity in tears, Laburnums form an ostentatious row Behind the gate whose veter...an front appears : Creaking it opens, as if loath to move, Though beauty bids, and lovers on it wait : Too truly thus its failing hinges prove, To love age seldom cares to ope the gate. For youth alone that buoyant ecstasy ; That flight of spirit to some happier sphere ; 64 THE FLOWERS OF SPRING.
That all-absorbing, burning fantasy, Enraptured feels and deems without compeer. How soon the illusion melts ! but wherefore grieve, Since love more steadfast and mature succeeds ? Long years of bliss young folly's days retrieve, And fruitful flowers supplant the gaudy weeds.
