What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
not long those fatal nuptials stood. For when the frosty winter-time was come, Shaking from sleep the wrath of Boreal winds, 50 HERO AND LEANDER.
Then 'neath incessant blasts the unstable deeps Shook, and their moist foundations yawned to view, Lashed with fierce whirlwinds : up on either shore The fisher drew his black boat high and dry, Dreading the fickle winter seas. But thee No fear of winter waves had power to check, Gallant Leander ! for the torch shone bright In its accustomed place, an...d made him bold To spurn the perils of the angry deep. Ah cruel torch ! Ah Hero, luckless maid ! Thou should'st have waited in thy loneliness Without Leander, when fell winter came. But Love and Fate were strong ; nor did she dream It was Fate's torch, not Love's, she fondly held.
'Twas night, when loudest roar the gathering winds — The frosty winds, that in wild javelin-play Of icy blasts sweep on the bleak sea-shore — When bold Leander on the heaving back Of treacherous-sounding waves was borne along.
