What reading level is Ionica book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You let my lifetime pause, and bade The noontide dial cast no shade.
If fate and nature screen from me The sovran front I bowed before, And set the glorious creature free, Whom I would clasp, detain, adore ; If I forego that strange delight.
Must all be lost ? Not quite, not quite.
Die, little Love, without complaint.
Whom Honour standeth by to shrive : • Assoil^d from aU selfish taint, Die, Love, whom Friendship will survive.
Nor heat nor folly gave thee birth ; And briefness doth but raise th...y worth.
Digitized by VjOOQ IC DETERIORA.
Let the grey hermit Friendship hoard Whatever sainted Love bequeathed, And in some hidden scroll record The vows in pious moments breathed.
Yex not the lost with idle suit, Oh, lonely heart, be mute, be mute.
Digitized by VjOOQ IC 98 As when a traveller, forced to journey back, Takes coin by coin, and gravely counts them o'er, Grudging each payment, fearing lest he lack.
Before he can regain the friendly shore ; So reckoned I your sojourn, day by day, So grudged I every week that dropt away.
