What reading level is Translations in Verse book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


What glimmers twixt the palm trees As veils were waving white ? What rustles through the grasses Like girlish footsteps light ? The coolly flowing waters, The evening breezes mild, Tempt in the golden sunset The Pharaoh's loveliest child.
Mark well the royal circlet Above her temples glow !
A fan of rarest plumage Wafts coolness o'er her brow, The while a polished mirror, Sweet oil in cruse of gold, The screen of ostrich feathers, Attendant maidens hold.
And now with looks of wonder They pause
...upon their way, Why gaze ye thus astonished ? Why tarry, maidens, say !
D 2 36 MOSES IN THE BULRUSHES Hark, where the sedge is closest, From out the swaying reeds, A murmuring most piteous For help and comfort pleads.
So low among the rushes What tender nestlings hide ? A fragile wicker basket Rocks on the heaving tide ! Oh, bring it here, ye maidens, And tell what in it lies, " Alas, a Hebrew infant, " The gentle Princess cries.
The foundling boy is beauteous, Though scarcely three moons old, Oh, ne'er did earthly sunlight A fairer one behold.
