What reading level is Life of John Greenleaf Whittier book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Slight ear or eye sores these, when we are thinking of wide well-earned fame, and perhaps to be accounted for also by the lack of early musical training, the poet having been brought up at a period when Friends disapproved of music ; or by some want of natural endowment which limited the range of his verse, and made him prefer, even in later days, the simple strains of the four-line ballad. This he could make not only effective, but melodious. How much of any want of melody anywhere may be acco...unted for by his own statement in 1882 " I don t know one tune from another " ! Conscious of lacking a certain faculty when using an unusual licence in " Pulse o the Midnight Beating, " he falls back, under editorial snub bing, into the old foot-rule measure. Something, too, may have arisen from want of health, and composition under sorrowful or painful circumstances. Even "Snow 168 LIFE OF bound " was written " to beguile the weariness of a sick chamber. " Make any allowance for the consequences of such hinderings, and for time taken from the quiet study of his art to be devoted to the manful service of Humanity, there is but little, while we the more love and reverence the man, to lessen the admiration due to him as one of the greater lords of song.
