What reading level is Madaline a Poem book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They look but on the lovely face of vice, The beautiful Echidna, whose fair form Terminates in the hideous, slimy folds Of coiling dragon. They will see nought, alas 1 Except her beauty, till they feel her sting ! " " Madaline, you have filled your mind with thoughts Of the heroic ages of the world, Until you lose all sight that nations are In childhood, when they make so prominent, Rash deeds of bravery, and take extreme, Impracticable views. When they have grown To mental greatness, in short,... civilized, 86 MADALINE.
They will in all things take the golden mean. " "Oh, Edward ! " quickly answered Madaline, "The golden mean oft means but selfish ease ! When nations reach the height of which you speak, Too oft, alas ! their strength is wholly gone ; They grow corrupt and die, as Greece, or Rome ! It should not be I think it would not be If, on their beings' high Olympus, there Were kept a place still sacred to the gods, For 't is their moral strength makes nations great ; But soul is left deserted for the mind" In her excitement, Madaline had risen, And she had paced the floor the while she spoke, Her eyes as bright as old, and cheek, and lip, With vivid hectic flush burned bright and warm.
