What reading level is Verses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A robin perched with drooping wings Between the heat-white earth and sky, His simple plaint to Heaven sings For cooling shower from on high. This only, and no other sound Breaks the dead stillness of the air, Save when from fields, where reapers round The less'ning grain, through the white glare. Their jaded horses urge ; or when, In well-dissimulated wrath, Outbursting from the brush, a wren Scolds furiously about my path. The edges of the dried-up creek Tall gentians fringe, lifting their pai...nt- Drenched purple cups as if to seek The upper glare ; All else hangs faint. From out long, tangled, sun-dried grass At intervals some insects breathes 17 Rain Time cadence ; but my heart, alas, After Sees but the drouth, the scorching leaves. Drouth. Soft sea-shell tints hang in the clouds That bank on bank sink in the west ; The storm is spent ; their line enshrouds The burning sun, and all is rest. A robin perched in new-washed bower, Between the steaming earth and sky, Sings not a plaint for Heaven-sent shower, But warbles love to One on high.
