What reading level is Our Charlie a Memorial book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We got a coffin, very rich and fair, Of polished rosewood, and we laid him there ; Then bore him off, and gently laid him by, In the green homestead where our dear ones lie, And where, thank God, when He shall think it best, We hope to go, and with them sweetly rest. And then we turned and rode away, and this, Without one kiss, the usual parting kiss, Rode off and left him, nevermore to come, 118 OUR- CHARLIE. And meet, or greet, or kiss us at sweet home, Rode off and left him rudely, vilely th...rust In the cold grave, to mingle with the dust. But O ! not yet our bosoms had begun To feel the absence of our darling one, Nor half appreciate, staggering 'neath the cross, The fearful import of the dreadful loss, Nor even feel the expectation vain, That our dear boy might yet come home again. But time moved on, and every moment brought Some fresh memorial that our child was not, Showed us some record upon memory's leaf, That added anguish to our load of grief; And, to this day, our bosoms, sorrow-tossed, But just begin to feel how much we lost.
