What reading level is Ballads Lyrics of Old France With Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
AH, Circe, Circe I in the wood we cried; Ah, Circe, Circe I but no voice replied ; No voice from bowers o'ergrown and ruinous As fallen rocks upon the mountain side.
There was no sound of singing in the air ; Failed or fled the maidens that were fair, No more for sorrow or joy were seen of us, No light of laughing eyes, or floating hair.
The perfume, and the music, and the flame Had passed away ; the memory of shame Alone abode, and stings of faint desire, And pulses of vague quiet went and cam...e.
Ah, Circe ! in thy sad changed fairy place, Our dead Youth came and looked on us a space, With drooping wings, and eyes of faded fire, And wasted hair about a weary face.
Why had we ever sought the magic Isle That seemed so happy in the days erewhile Why did we ever leave it, where we met A world of happy wonders in one smile ?
Back to the westward and the waning light We turned, we fled ; the solitude of night Was better than the infinite regret, In fallen places of our dead delight.
THE LIMIT OF LANDS.
