What reading level is Antwerp book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And the grey coat, and the large hat, and the hands behind the back, Watches them pass In our minds for ever . . But that clutter of sodden corses On the sodden Belgian grass — That is a strange new beauty.
IV.
With no especial legends of marchings or triumphs or duty, Assuredly that is the way of it, The way of beauty . .
And that is the highest word you can find to say of it. For you cannot praise it with words Compounded of lyres and swords, But the thought of the gloom and the rain And the ...ugly coated figure, standing beside a drain, Shall eat itself into your brain : And you will say of all heroes : " They fought like the Belgians ! " And you will say : " He wrought like a Belgian his fate out of gloom, " And you will say : " He bought like a Belgian His doom. " And that shall be an honourable name ; " Belgian " shall be an honourable word, As honourable as the fame of the sword. As honourable as the mention of the many-chorded lyre. And his old coat shall seem as beautiful as the fabrics woven in Tyre.
