What reading level is Poems 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Methinks it were a nobler sight To see these vales in woods arrayed.
AN INDIAN AT THE BURIAL PLACE, 121 Their Bummits in the golden light, Their trunks in grateful shade.
And herds of deer, that bounding go O'er hills and prostrate trees below.
And then to mark the lord of all, The forest hero, trained to wars, Quivered and plumed, and lithe and tall.
And seamed with glorious scars.
Walk forth, amid his reign, to dare The wolf, and grapple with the bear.
This bank, in which the dead were laid.
...Was sacred when its soil was ours ; Hither the silent Indian maid Brought wreaths of beads and flowerg And the gay chief and gifted seer Worshipped the God of thunders here.
122 POEMS.
But now the wheat is green and high, On clods that hid the warrior's breast, And scattered in the furrows lie The weapons of his rest ; And there, in the loose sand, is thrown Of his lai^ arm the mouldering bone.
Ah, little thought the strong and brave Who bore their lifeless chieftain forth — Or the young wife, that weeping gave Her first-born to the earth.
