What reading level is The Science of English Verse book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As " written by a superior, thoughtful man, with a vicious ear, " adding: "I can mark his lines, and know well their cadence. . . . The lines are constructed on a given tune, and the' verse has even a trace of pulpit eloquence. " Mr. Spedding in a letter to The Gentleman's Magazine, October, 1850, (reprinted in the Shaks. Soc. Trans, for 1874, Appendix, p. 21) mentions: " The resemblance of the style, in some parts of the play, to Fletcher's, Fletcher's Double Endings, Alexandrines. 209 crawlin...g withal. If now we compare this fact with the curiously-differing practice of Shakspere, we obtain a very striking mark of distinction. While Shakspere used the double-ending line far more freely in his late period than in his early one the early Love's Labor's Lost has but nine T double-ending lines in a total of 2, 789 while the late Winter 's Tale has six hundred and thirty-nine double-endings in a total of 2, 758 he also used the run-on line with a similarly-increased frequen- cy : so that while by virtue of the more frequent double- endings his verse grew more like Fletcher's, it grew more unlike Fletcher's by virtue of the enormous musical dif- ference between Shakspere's run-on lines, which are merely rendered more elastic and varied by the double- ending, and Fletcher's end-stopped lines, which are really impressed with the sluggishness of the Alexandrine by the double-ending.
