What reading level is Utterances book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Then MILO, in his madness, spoke: "I think my strength can tear this oak! These wedges I no more need drive My HANDS alone the trunk shall rive !" With giant gripe, the oak to rend, He bowed himself, as whirlwinds bend ; With furious tug, and desperate strain, To rive that goodly oak in twain.
MILO AND THE OAK. 27 Till, one by one, with loosening clang, Those iron wedges outward sprang; And, narrowing its elastic strands, The touo-h oak closed on MILO'S hands.
O It crushed him in its fierce reb...ound; It shook each black wedge . To the ground ; It lifted up its crest of stars, And bade the sunbeams gild its scars!
I know not if Pythagoras spoke To freeborn souls of MILO'S oak; But this I know that if there towers Such oak-tree in this land of ours And if some impious hand should strain To rend that goodly oak in twain Methinks I'd cry aloud, this day, "In God's name, strike the WEDGE away!" The wedge, that rent the strands apart, The wedge, that fein would cleave the heart ; Strike out this wedge!
