What reading level is English Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"There were three places where they ever rose — The whole long river has not such as those — Places accurst, where if a man remain, 340 He'll see the things which strike him to the brain: And there they made me on my paddle lean.
And look at them for hours — accursed scene !
When they would glide to that smooth eddy-space.
Then bid me leap and join them in the place; 345 And at my groans each little villain sprite Enjoyed my pains and vanished in delight.
"In one fierce summer day, when my poor... brain Was burning-hot, and cruel was my pain.
Then came this father-foe, and there he stood 350 With his two boys again upon the flood; There was more mischief in their eyes, more glee In their pale faces, when they glared at me.
Still did they force me on the oar to rest; And when they saw me fainting and oppressed, 355 He, with his hand, the old man, scooped the flood.
And there came flame about him mixed with blood; He bade me stoop and look upon the place, Then flung the hot-red liquor in my face; Burning it blazed, and then I roared for pain— 360 I thought the demons would have turned my brain.
