What reading level is The Kirk Above Dee Water book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
t Macmillan, however, was also a maker of verses. See his epitaph on his second wife ; also elegy on her death.
86 The Kirk above Dee Water, The very shepherds and ploughmen blossom naturally out in poetry. Every heart here is readily moved by touching and beautiful verses. The quiet kirkyard contains no less than eleven poetical pieces, some of which may have come from Martin's own pen. In my opinion, they are nearly all above the average of churchyard verses, and deserving of permanent record... apart from the fading stones. Dr Martin lived and laboured among an intensely emotional people, and the undercurrent of his life, like theirs, was highly coloured by imagination. Judging him by his sole surviving verses, the 12th paraphrase, we might indeed form a less favourable opinion, since his theme, the need of diligence and watchfulness, did not permit very imaginative treatment. But it is, at all events, pleasant to picture this kindly old Scottish minister polishing his homely lines, and quietly* pacing the narrow walks of his garden on long summer evenings, while he conned over some phrase, or turned a new rhyme in his mind.
