What reading level is The Rush Light book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"The bagmen carry the story The circuit of Eire round, And they sing it at fair and hurling From Edair to Acaill Sound.
"And the folk repeat it over About the winter fires, Till the heart of each one listening Is burning with fierce desires.
"In the Glen of the Bristleless Boar They say the battle shall be, Where Breiffne's holy mountains Look on the western sea.
"In the Glen of the Pig of Diarmad, On Gulban's hither side, The battle shall be broken About the Samhain tide.
"Forth from the ancie...nt hills, With war-cries strident and loud, 38.
The people shall march at daybreak, Massed in a clamorous crowd.
"War-pipes shall scream and cry, And battle-banners shall wave, And every stone on Gulban Shall mark a hero's grave.
"The horses shall wade to their houghs In rivers of smoking blood, Charging thro' heaps of corpses Scattered in whinny and wood.
"The girths shall rot from their bellies After the battle is done, For lack of a hand to untie them And hide them out of the sun.
"It shall not be the battle Between the folk and the Sidhe At the rape of a bride from her bed Or a babe from its mother's knee.
