What reading level is Io Anche Poems Chiefly Lyrical book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Tilly, the many-battled chief, the stern of heart and eye, Before whose conquering banner foes came ever but to die Whom Austria deemed the hope and staff of her Impe- rial crown Lost to the Swede in one dread hour his long, long- prized renown.
Quaked to the core the Papal power when these dark tidings spread, And moved o'er all was Richelieu, its Gallic prop and head; He scorned the Viennese, but he was linked with them in faith, And shrunk to see their common Church shake at the north-wind's... breath.
Long mused the haughty Cardinal, the man of many wiles, How best destruction might be pulled down on the Swedish files; No dream had he of manly fight upon the open field; Far other ways were Richelieu's dark, subtle, and con- cealed.
At length a strange and murderous thought arose with- in his mind, And there was it ere long matured, embellished, and refined; And soon the instruments were found, and taught, and sworn, and fee'd, To do the act of darkness by the master-head decreed.
Beware, beware, thou lion-heart !
