What reading level is Lyrics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
( 28 ) Songs of Aphrodite (II) Too passionless twilight !
Sweeping the wave-distracted, weary land And the land-weary sea, With pinions noiseless as a seagull's flight : — Oh ! heart of mine, no wise, beneficent hand Of twilight falls on thee !
And canst thou not forget — Wild heart, insatiate still and still the same As when found worthy of a god's embrace ! Since then how many suns have risen and set? — Oh ! canst thou not forget that thou wert flame In thy last dwelling-place !
( 29 ) Songs ...of Aphrodite (III) Oh ! wind, forever blowing South, Pausing to listen in mid-flight, What is this rumour thou hast heard? Has Aphrodite's golden mouth Whispered, all laughter and delight, Some magical new word ?
That all the dancing sea Leaps and exults to-day and flings Its waves aloft, high and still higher, above The shining cliffs, which seem to be — All white with scattered foam and seagulls' wings — Altars of some lost ritual of love.
( 30 ) Ode to Aphrodite Not from calm waters only has she sprung, Not only from the swing of somnolent tides, But from grey depths by swart rocks overhung, And icy caverns where the whirlwind hides.
