What reading level is The West Indies And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Supreme in grace, and infinite in power : — Oft o'er the Eden-islands of the West, In floral pomp, and verdant beauty drest. Roll the dark clouds of his awaken'd ire ; — Thunder and earthquake, whirlwind, flood, and fire, Midst reeling mountains and disparting plains, Tell the pale world, — ' The God of vengeance reigns. " Nor in the majesty of storms alone, ^ The eternal makes his fierce displeasure known ; 48 At his command tlic pestilence abhorrM Spares the poor slave, and smites the haughty... lord ; While to the tomb he sees his friend consign'd, Foreboding melancholy sinks his mind, Soon at his heart he feels the monster's fangs, They tear his vitals with convulsive pangs ; The light is anguish to his eye, the air Sepulchral vapours laden with despair ; Now frenzy -horrors rack his whirling brain, Tremendous pulses throb through every vein ; The firm earth shrinks beneath his torture-bed, The sky in ruins rushes o'er his head ; He rolls, he rages in consuming fires, Till nature spent, with agony expires.
