What reading level is The Siege of Monterey: book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Esau sold his birthright for a beef-steak, But I'd sell mine now for a pancake.
Or for anything at all in the eating line, I'd sign a bill of sale to all of mine.
To keep my temper is a thing I can't, Nor make a rhyme when I am gaunt.
My muse hath no patience in her.
So I'll drop my pen and go to dinner.
SIEGE OF MONTEREY. 65 THE SECOND DAY'S SIEGE OF MONTEREY.
CANTO Y.
I.
Here, reader, I begin another Canto, new, So come , let's get to work, gentle muse.
On thy wings you must tote me through.
...So 'tis unnecessary for thee to refuse.
I have had my dinner and a frolic.
And spent a goodly sum of money.
I've also had a spell of cramp colic.
But now I feel fair, fat, and funny.
II.
My muse hath now broke her fetter, And my ideas are very much expanded.
And I think I can express 'em better.
If I have to get them second handed.
I don't profess to be a famous writer — I am nothing but a little poetaster; Neither am I any very extensive fighter.
And a d — d bad hand am I to plaster, III.
But whatever passes into my ideas first.
