What reading level is Autumn Leaves Original Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That is not whoUy good and gain Which seals the mind and sears the heart, The life-long labour to sustain Man's perishable part.
His is the need "and his the right Of leisure, free fi'om harsh control, That he may seek for mental light, And cultivate his soul.
Leisure to foster into bloom Affections stiniggling to expand ; And make his thought, with ampler room, Befine his skill of hand.
ORIGINAL POETRY. 33 And he should look with reverent eyes On Nature's ever varying page ; Not solely are the... wondi-ous skies For schoolman and for sage.
Earth's flower-hues bhish, heaven's star-lights bum, Not only for the easy few ; To them the toiling man should turn For truth and pleasure too.
And he should have his proper share Of God's great gifts, whate'er they be, Food, raiment, stainless light and air, And knowledge pure and free.
But if ye stint his brain or bread, And drive him in one dreary round, (Since he and his must needs be fed) Yet crush him to the groimd.
His mind can have no soaring wing : His heart can feel no generous glow ; Ye make of him that wretched thing A slave, and yet a foe !
