What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She feels, but cannot i-ead Aright ; then leans as she would feed The dear dead lips that never heed.
The spirit of life may leap above, But in that grave her prisoned dove Lies, cold to th' warm embrace of love, And dark, tho' all the world is bright ; And lonely, with a City in sight ; And desolate in the rainy night.
Ah, God ! when in the glad life-cup The face of Death swims darkly up ; The crowning flower is sure to droop.
And so we laid our darling down, "When Summer's cheek grew ripely b...rown, And still, tho' grief hath milder grown, Unto the Stranger's land we cleave, Like some poor Birds that grieve and grieve, Round the robbed nest, and cannot leave.
THE MOTHER'S IDOL BROKEN. 171 XII.
Ah, the sweet Dream, the singing Dream, that sang We knew not what, so sweet the melody !
Made dim woe glimmer golden while we slept ; And when we woke the lulling Dream was gone.
We who had glowed like Angels in the sun, With life so lighted by her loveliness : We let her down into the drowning Dark, Sailing the awful Sea in our World-bark.
