What reading level is The Paradox And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For they have brooded thus for countless years, Aye, brooded thus ere Time his course began ; Unmoved, have marked the flood of human fears, And human hopes, which crowd life's little span ; Have heard unmoved, the last faint piping of the insect man.
SOLITUDE. 125 Forever waiting, still they seem to be Forever waiting for we know not what : An awful sense of mighty mystery, Of something yet to come, or something that Hath passed beyond our ken, which was, but now is not.
Like mighty giants, li...mned against the sky, Each monstrous bulk upheaves from out the plain ; All motionless, in endless sleep they lie, Nor babble of the secrets they retain Within their rock-ribbed bosoms, ever probed by man in vain.
Like mighty giants of some elder day, They seem no part nor parcel of our time ; Nor heed unto the present ever pay.
But slumber on in attitude sublime ; Girt by their leafy beards, and capp'd with hoary rime.
The rise and fall of empires is to them No more than fate of yonder leaflet blown ; They ne'er have bow'd to kingly diadem, Nor spurned the neck of despot overthrown ; Nor ever wept to hear the dying patriot's plain- tive moan.
