What reading level is The Writing And Reading of Verse book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Here are two examples of the same principle in Lowell: Fresh blood in Time's shrunk veins make mirth and, laughing hunts the loa^ drudge round. The obstruction to the rhythm in these lines is quite inap- propriate to the thought. Poe, whose complete mastery of such details made him a merciless critic of technique, annihilated one Algernon Henry Perkins for writing the line. Its clustered stars beneath Spring's footsteps meets, "in which the consonants are more sadly clustered than the stars. Th...e poet who would bring uninterruptedly together such letters as th, s, p, and r, has either no ear at all, or two unusually long ones. The word 'footsteps,' moreover, should never be used in verse. To read the line quoted, one must mouth like Forrest and hiss like a serpent.''^^ Triple rhythm feels even more than duple, the hindrance of awkward consonant combinations in heavy or extra ac- cented syllables. In the following three lines the rapid ana- pestic movement is suddenly checked by the sheer difficulty of pronouncing first, the sequence, kskoldsp, and then, the uncouth word stretched, which occurs in a place where a light syllable is expected.
