What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
THE HAUNTED CHAPEL.
N a dim old chesnut forest, Far from the city's din,- Stands a long-deserted chapel — So does my lay begin.
The walls with age are crumbling, With moss and lichen wed To mouldy crust between the chinks — All else save this is dead.
A hundred years and more>haye past.
Since censers here have swung, Or chant or benison has been said.
Or Vesper bell been rung.
A hundred years since the vigil lamp Before the Virgin gleamed.
Illuming the ancient picture.
Now mildewed, stained, an...d seamed.
The Haunted Chapel 157 Her cobwebs on the window sill, The wary spider, weaves, Embroidering the altar lace, Sewing the missal leaves.
Tis said in that haunted chapel, At sound of the Vesper bell, A spectral friar comes to pray — His Ave beads to tell.
Oft at even-tide I've lingered.
When twilight shadows stole Bound the hills, and the spangled mist Kolled upward like a scroll.
On the evening breeze came voices, Cadenzas on the ear.
But not from within the grating Heard I the Monk at prayV.
