What reading level is Francis Thompson, the Preston-Born Poet, With Notes On Some of His Works, By John Thomson book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In his coffin were roses from the garden of Mr. George Meredith, inscribed with Mr. Meredith's testimony " A true poet, one of a small band " ; and violets from kindred turf were sent by Mrs.
Meynell, whose praises he had with such soul-worship sung. Mr. Meynell's biographical note prefaced to the volume of " Selected Poems " ends : " Devoted friends lament him, no less for himself than for his singing. He FRANCIS THOMPSON. 39 had made all men his debtors, leaving to those who loved him the mem...ory of a unique personality, and to English poetry an imperishable name." His rich and varied colourings with their old-time touches of re-captured glory, his rapt mysticism and high thinking, the wide range of his mental vision, and the answering splendours of his lofty imaginings, have placed him high in the permanent ranks of fame. Indeed, it is true to say of Thompson — as of Shelley, Keats, and Tennyson — that so long as poems are read, so long will some of them, at least, be his — the great, though hitherto but little known Victorian, who shall yet be counted memorable by all jealous of the high traditions of English Song.
