What reading level is A Few Quatrains book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Whence comes the glory that encircles that slim beam And paints the steel with gilt and sapphire light?
Tis but a dim reflection only a day-dream From Natures sunlight, warm and fair and bright.
My faith is of the future, not the past.
Things that have been are dead and grey. On the great deeds my fathers have amassed.
I shall rise upward to the fuller day.
The choir left the church; their voices rise and fall, Like the dim echo of a torrent far away, Whose flood, decreasing, dwindles slowly da...y by day, Quavered with sad persistence through the silent hall.
You of blind faith, who only gaze above, Think for an instant of all those below.
You "praise the Lord" with far more awe than love. You miss the sunset see the after-glow.
QUATRAINS OF WAR.
We were not made to fight and war, for that were sin. And yet, we hear the battle s roar, the cannon s din! And so we cry, and call upon the Lord above. Perchance He is a-hunting gone our God of Love.
One man the less? Why, let him be. He, stalwart fellow, earned his rest, He did his duty he refused to flee And now he has a bayonet in his breast.
