What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
E'en in the sunlight clear.
Feel I thy presence near.
Tender and spotless as some snow-white dove.
48 THE SNOW-CLAD PLAINS.
If I close my eyes, I see Long and level fields of white, Broken by no house or tree.
And across them spreads a light From the sunset's wondrous glow, Dazzling to a mortal's sight.
And no mortal hand may show.
Never mortal tongue tell, one Of its glories, though they flow Freely from the setting sun.
As it sinks behind the wall Of the mountain-chains that run Through a wor...ld white-clad, and all Pure, save where their shadows fall.
Clouds like angel forms of air, In the sunset's colors clad.
Seek to hide, with tender care, All the hill-tops, dark and sad With the weight of the world's grief, While the world itself is mad.
Mad with joy and blest relief.
Thus to see its troubles deep 49 'Neath the snow, that, like a thief, Steals from time tears we should weep, Forms them into crystals bright, And then, while the world's asleep, Wraps her in a robe of white, Gleaming with the sunset's light •'SICK, OH, SICK!" — King Lear.
