What reading level is The Pageant of Life An Epic Poem in Five Books book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The songs and psalms of earth ring faint and hollow ; But thunder-paeans shake the sky.
Renounce the loves of earth, the hands that beckon, Woman's alluring subtle smile. Who yields his soul to love shall surely reckon With judgment in a little while.
Christ is the Son of God Believe, or perish.
His arm is stretched out from on high. The flower-lipped loves your fleshly frail hearts cherish Along with you shall surely die.
Nought hath avail, save one thing to deliver * By faith your souls from ...flames of hell. Pause not to gaze at silver lake or river, Or sunset o'er the purple fell : Pause not to dream by rippling ocean-marges ; Pause not for lure of laugh or kiss ; Young girls' white bosoms oftenest are the targes Wherethrough hell's fiery arrows hiss : CHRIST, AND THE ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN. 255 Pause not. Seek Christ's ineffable redemption.
Put all things else away, aside. If ye will haste, ye yet may win exemption From struggle with hell's lava-tide.
The songs of birds within the leafy arches ; The songs of girls beside the stream ; The glades wherethrough the stately red deer marches ; The boughs wherethrough the blue jays gleam : The morning sun that through the foliage glistens, Changing green leaves to magic light ; The stars' strong song whereto the wild sea listens, Checking its frantic coursers white : The whispered words of lovers, as they murmur " O love, how sweet this life can be !
