What reading level is Elizabethan Sonnet-Cycles book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These are the arks, the trophies I erect, That fortify thy name against old age; And these thy sacred virtues must protect Against the dark and time's consuming rage. Though th'error of my youth in them appear, Suffice, they show I lived and loved thee, dear.
LIII As to the Roman that would free his land, His error was his honour and renown; And more the fame of his mistaking hand Than if he had the tyrant overthrown. So Delia, hath mine error made me known, And my deceived attempt deserved mor...e fame, Than if had the victory mine own, And thy hard heart had yielded up the same. And so likewise renowned is thy blame; Thy cruelty, thy glory; O strange case, That errors should be graced that merit shame, And sin of frowns bring honour to the face. Yet happy Delia that thou wast unkind, Though happier far, if thou would'st change thy mind.
LIV Like as the lute delights or else dislikes As is his art that plays upon the same, So sounds my Muse according as she strikes On my heart-strings high tuned unto her fame.
