What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The children grow, and in their turn.
Most eagerly embrace, The first fair chance they can discern.
For independent place; By various paths, they march along.
Their courage high, their sinews strong.
The road now bends towards the north; The wind is cold and keen; Mountains, snow-capped, stand grandly forth Deep valleys lie between.
Through a dark gorge our hard way winds.
While painful thoughts oppress our minds.
The gentle wife is ill ; her strength Scarce answers for the day; We struggle onw...ards, but at length Must stop upon our way.
In spite of prayers, and groans, and sighs, — One final kiss, — my loved one dies.
-79- Where now the hope of life-long light?
Where now my heart's best friend?
My gray hair blanches into white ; Oh ! let this journey end !
Children and friends would comfort me ; 'Tis vain, — I know my destiny.
While tears were falling from my eyes, And I could scarcely stand, A comforter, supremely wise, Stretched forth a helping hand.
Love, wounded, loses self-control ; Philosophy sustains the soul.
