What reading level is City Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But lamentation and complaint are vain : The skies are stern and serious as doom ; The avalanche is loosened by a laugh ; 82 CITY POEMS.
And he who throws the dice of destiny, Though with a sportive and uuthliiking hand, Must bide the issue, be it life or dcatli. One path is clear before me. It may lead O'er perilous rock, 'cross sands without a well. Through deep and difficult chasms, but therein The whiteness of the soul is kept, and that. Not joy nor happiness, is victory.
" Ah, she is not t...he creatiu-e who I ch-eamed Should one day walk beside nic dearly loved : No fair majestic woman, void of fear, And unabashed from ])urity of heart ; No girl with liquid eyes and shadowy hair, To sing at twilight like a nightingale. Or fill the silence with her glimmering smiles, Deeper than speech or song. She has no birth. No do^vry, graces ; no accomplishments, Save a pm^e cheek, a fearless innocent brow, And a true -beating heart. She is no bank SQUIRE MAURICE. 83 Of rare exotics which o'ercome the sense With perfumes — only fresh uncultured soil With a wilil-violet grace and sweetness born Of Nature's teeming foison.
