What reading level is College Verses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
5 8 The Patrician's Daughter.
O, when a triumph passes, then my heart Beats wildly! Then the Roman blood Mounts up into my face, and stings my brow, And throbs upon my temples at the thought Of great and glorious deeds ! The while I stand To watch the warriors pass, a fierce desire To be heroic comes upon me. But I turn, A moment after, in a woman's way, Within the house, to pretty duties there, To spin, and sew, and dress becomingly !
I long for power, for knowledge, for a soul Strong in itsel...f, and large enough to grasp The mysteries of life. The livelong day I thirst for wisdom, and the livelong night I toss impatient, praying of the gods To tell me what our life is, or to say Of what avail it is to live at all.
'Twere sacrilege to say they do not know, But who can stop the thought? Sometimes I think I would not even fear the mighty gods, So bold I grow in my desire to find The deeper meaning in the things I see.
For not a statue guards the corridors, Or bends above a fountain, but I feel Mysterious pity dropping from her eyes The Patrician's Daughter.
