What reading level is Lays of Ancient Virginia, And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Sometimes I feel that I have reached that hour, and I have felt, When pondering o'er the dreary change, my spirit in me melt. The joyful trust, the bounding hopes, that laughed at scorned defeat, The feeling, like pure rock-born streams, as strong, as deep, and sweet;The soul that thrilled with transport wild, at Beauty's magic name;Ah! all have strangely altered now, --I am no more the same. And now I feel alone and sad amid an ocean wide, I care not much to what strange coast my single plank ...may ride, I am alone--what matters it where my bowed frame may be, Since now my heart is never more by land or rolling sea. I feel that as yon Night now throws its mantle o'er the earth, Till ghostly shapes and ghostly sounds, go dimly walking forth--That soon the night of Death may throw its mantle over me, And unfamiliar things shall rise from dark eternity. Yet, would I hope, when such shall come, to dwell not with pain, But walk, with a triumphant song, o'er heaven's unshadowed plain--Where Youth and Hope, and Love and Joy, (the angels, ) ever smile, And evermore the aching heart from woe and grief beguile.
