What reading level is Ballads of Ghostly Shires Folk Lore Verses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Seemed as though a thin sharp stone Fell clanging to the lake, Leaving never a plash or bubble Behind as it sank We shall have music for our trouble The Harper's on the bank !
That was the twang of the first sharp twitch He gives his favourite string, But now his fingers deftly pitch, With many a dart and spring, Back and forward, out and in, Down and up, and down again, The music leaps from his fingering clear, GHOSTLY SHIEES 97 Sails away to the upper air, And mingles with the moonlight there....
Now, do but mark its merry springing Like nothing else it seems But the chuckling glee and joyous singing Of a hundred tiny streams A hundred little rippling rebels, Stirring a thousand clanking pebbles Galloping fetterless and free Across the breadth of Blaydon Lea.
Through it all a deeper strain Doth subtly twine and rove 'Tis singing now of Human Pain Anon 'twill break to Mirth again, And finish up with Love.
And while the strain thus groans and cries, The Harper's heart it laughs and sighs It sighs for pangs of Humankind It keenly laughs that men are blind, And Pain is but a service paid For wounds their own harsh hands have made.
