What reading level is Dreams And Days: Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
VI _Hearkening still, I hear this strainFrom the ninth opal's varied vein:_ NINTH OPAL In the mountains of Mexico, Where the barren volcanoes throwTheir fierce peaks high to the sky, With the strength of a tawny bruteThat sees heaven but to defy, And the soft, white hand of the snowTouches and makes them mute, -- Firm in the clasp of the groundThe opal is found. By the struggle of frost and fireCreated, yet caught in a spellFrom which only human desireCan free it, what passion profoundIn its di...m, sweet bosom may dwell!
So was it with us, I think, Whose souls were formed on the brinkOf a crater, where rain and flameHad mingled and crystallized. One venturous day Love came;Found us; and bound with a linkOf gold the jewels he prized.
The agonies old of the earth, Its plenitude and its dearth, The torrents of flame and of tears, All these in our souls were inborn. And we must endure through the yearsThe glory and burden of birthThat filled us with fire of the morn.
Let the diamond lie in its mine;Let ruby and topaz shine;The beryl sleep, and the emerald keepIts sunned-leaf green!
