What reading level is The New Pastoral book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On yonder plain The rustling maize, in many a bowing shock, Whispers to every passing breeze. Last night, Beneath the white moon, in the silent air, In jovial bands the huskers, flocking, came, And stripped the covers from the yellow ears, And left them glowing there in golden mounds.
Oh, how the song, and jest, and laugh, went round !
And when the crimson ear was found, the prize Was held in blazing splendour, like a torch, And all proclaimed a sweetheart, and rejoiced.
I stood apart, and, as ...in days a-gone, Hearkened to hear thy voice among the rest ; But there were none so happy or so clear, Or, as I fancied, half so musical.
Within doors, through the busy afternoon, Till late at eve, the neighbouring dames and maids THE NEW PASTORAL. 125 Found social pleasure round the spreading quilt, With rapid hands, till on the oft-rolled frame The latest puny diamond-row was stitched. Then, when the gay and separate tasks were done, And noisy supper past, the room was cleared ; When mirth, and music, and the mazy dance Keeled through the night till every rafter rang, And the wide floor, beneath the gliding feet, Swayed till each long joist, half-astonished, groaned.
