What reading level is Danton And Other Verse book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
'' ' ' What, not one, ' I said, ' not one ! Fabricius, what say'st thou ? ' and left him so.
38 DANTON C. Desmoulins, Had ye remained he would have preached to you For hours, with his own virtue as his text, And he emerges from his homilies On others like a good man from a bath, As if his own superior righteousness Shone out the cleaner-polished for the plunge. Prim as a boy, as man pragmatical, Too timorous for ambition's dizzy crags. And too ambitious for the lowlier vale, The zealot in him g...rows half lunatic With pampering his own imperiousness. He wraps himself in gloom, perceives a plot In every whisper, never owns a fault, Will brook no opposition, nor forgive A wound to his self-love, accuses men For slight cause or for no cause, thinks the world Has only eye for him, and is, in brief, So cross-grained, cankered, and cantankerous, So full of spleen and spite and stuffed conceit, That, wondering, we behold bestriding France A monster half emerged from manikin.
Danton. Whose maw, mayhap, will swallow thee and me.
