What reading level is Optimos book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
My way was dark with the darkness of its sloth: what did the song mean to me?
My way was sunny with the sunshine of busy service: what did the song mean to me?
I stand awed before my own unanswerable questions, wor shiping much, saying nothing: What did the song mean to me?
What did the song mean to me?
The song did not mean something played by the master s orchestra, The song did not mean something which came to me off the baton of the leader, The song did not mean the grand harmonies of the c...om poser and they were very grand, The song did not mean something the critics told me about in a book, The song did not mean something I read of the song in the life of its author, The song did not mean a faraway dream of the man in whose name it is put on the programs: The song meant my life the daily round of my innocent and guilty life, The song meant my life the common dirt out of which my life springs on the way to God. The summoner when he wrote it knew well enough that there would be just such a man as me around to hear and answer, 160 OPTIMOS He saw my face, he felt my faster beating heart, he counted my hurrying pulse, He skipped all the years between and all the people and came straight to me, In all the surrender and all the conquest of my life came straight to me, So that as I sat there, just one person in the big crowd, So that as I sat there, just in an ordinary seat, looking like all the rest, He came to me direct, laid his hand on my arm, kissed my lips with his lips and went away complacent and up lifted, Joyously confessing that the song and the master of the song had met and paid their immortal debt.
