What reading level is Afterthoughts book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And every creak resounding on the stair Sent chill foreboding to my heart loud- beating ; I almost thought to hear in earth or air Some apparition's greeting.
The wind howled loud and blew in fitful gusts Against the groaning windows of my dwelling ; Fog wrapped it round, as rust a bar encrusts ; A stifling storm was swelling.
HAUNTED. 55 I bent my brow o'er my half-written paper, And wiped my forehead with big drops all beaded ; My eyes were burning and the pallid taper From my strained sight ...receded.
Weird ghastly thoughts coursed through my palsied brain, My veins stood out all blue and thickly knotted, When, gazing on the floor, I saw a stain Where several boards had rotted.
My blood stood still, my pen fell from my hand, My flesh seemed on my body to be creeping, A hollow groan I heard with terror, and A sound of hopeless weeping.
There, in the dimmest corner of the room, A gaunt and sheeted spectre seemed to linger, And as the midnight hour gave forth its boom It beckoned with its finger.
