What reading level is Early Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
with awe-stricken looks, All ask: his airy knuckles he crooks, And raps, "I was Eliab Snooks, That used to be a pedler; Some on ye still are on my books!" Whereat, to inconspicuous nooks, (More fearing this than common spooks,) Shrank each indebted meddler; Further the vengeful ghost declared That while his earthly life was spared.
About the country he had fared, A duly licensed follower Of that much-wandering trade that wins Slow profit from the sale of tins.
And various kinds of hollow-ware; ...That Colonel Jones enticed him in Pretending that he wanted tin.
There slew him with a rolling-pin.
Hid him in a potato-bin, And (the same night) him ferried Across Great Pond to t'other shore, And there on land of Widow Moore, Just where you turn to Larkin's store, Under a rock him buried; Some friends (who happened to be by) He called upon to testify That what he said was not a lie, And that he did not stir this Foul matter out of any spite But from a simple love of right ; — Which statement the Nine Worthies, LOWELL'S POEMS.
