What reading level is The Golden Treasury book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is the distant and the dim That we are sick to greet : 366 ADDITIONAL POEMS For flowers that grow our hands beneath We struggle and aspire, — Our hearts must die, except they breathe The air of fresh Desire.
Yet, Brothers, who up Reason's hill Advance with hopeful cheer. — O ! loiter not, those heights are chill, As chill as they are clear ; And still restrain j^our haughty gaze, The loftier that ye go, Remembering distance leaves a haze On all that Hes below.
Lord Houghton CCCLVII THE MILLE...R'S DAUGHTER It is the miller's daughter.
And she is grown so dear, so dear, That I would be the jewel That trembles at her ear : For hid in ringlets day and night, I'd touch her neck so warm and white.
And I would be the girdle About her dainty dainty waist, And her heart would beat against me In sorrow and in rest : And I should know if it beat right, I'd clasp it round so close and tight.
And I would be the necklace, And all day long to fall and rise Upon her balmj- bosom, With her laughter or her sighs, And I would lie so light, so light, I scarce should be unclasp'd at night.
