What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
St. John xv. 2.
N dreams I saw a vine, most fair to view, Fed by the sunshine and the early dew, Twine round a stately tree its tender shoots, Its gracious foliage and its clustering fruits.
A storm came sweeping o'er it, and it fell, Torn from that stately tree it graced so well. All drooping on the ground I saw it lie, And trampled under foot by heedless passers by.
I looked and grieved — but as I grieved I heard A clear voice from afar that spake this word : ' Weep not to see the vine all fa...ded lie, ' The Owner of the Vineyard draweth nigh. ' *3 And then I saw a Shining One appear ; So gentle was His look, I knew no fear.
* Alas ! ' said He, ' poor vine, thou art wounded sore, ' Yet I must seem to wound thee more and more. ' Then with sharp knife He pruned the broken shoots, The clinging tendrils and the bruised fruits. From the loose earth the strained roots set free, And raised it from the ground full tenderly.
' Wilt thou not spare the vine, O Lord ?' I cried. ' I have a fairer garden, ' He replied.
