What reading level is Idle Hours .. book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What guides it upward, what is its source?
Ah, poor fools and wretched knaves.
After all, you are but slaves, So I ask — through life's short span — Answer — Why should man fear man?
— 23 — PRISON POEMS.
You can but take my life, You, too, poor fools, must die, What matter the few short years longer you may live, Ere I have finished the lines here written Thousands will pass beyond And thousands more will be ushered into the world- Fools — the very earth you tread Is but the dust of mingled dea...d, The rich, the poor, the king, the slave, All shall share alike — the grave.
Yes, your turn shall come — poor fools — And other races shall walk upon your dust As you now walk upon the dust of those now dead; So why should I fear your power Which is really no greater than my own; You have taken my liberty — You may take my life.
But I fear me not to die Nor fear the great beyond; Ah, poor fools and knaves — I pity you.
Slaves to lust and greed, I hide behind gray walls my shame; You, poor fools, have no shame.
