What reading level is In the Afterglow Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Then, suddenly caught from the altar, flashing from taper to taper, Leaping from hand to hand, a radiance, tumultuous, tender, Spreading out under the arches, a widening circle of splendor, A tremulous sea of light, tossing in wild waves of amber; From taper to taper it spread like love from one heart to another Passing from shrine to s hrine, till the temple, from altar to portal, Needed no light of the sun, for the glory of God was upon her.
So, they tell us, runs the legend Of the pilgrim s ...faith and prayer! You, oh, faithful, who are bearing Lighted tapers everywhere; You, who dwell so close, a finger Lifted, stirs His garment s hem, Not for you this old time legend Brought from far Jerusalem.
Not for you the mournful waiting By the Master s empty tomb; In each human face ye find Him, Shining up thro sin and gloom; And for you the blessed mission, In the spirit s murkiest night To uphold the shining taper, Flood the dark with God s own light.
50 In each heart to which you show Him Sacred altars shall be set; Dear, indeed, to Him must ever Be the slopes of Olivet; But the mount of strong temptation, Which some soul has safely trod, Through your leading, ^may be even Dearer to the heart of God.
