What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
All suddenly she raised her head: "What seest thou?" she cried.
The Bridegroom wet his lips with wine, Then swept the glass aside — His smile was like a crooked knife, And yet he smiled, and lied.
[132] "I only see my scarlet man Who serves me all the year; I only see my yellow cups That hold the wedding cheer — What moves you, Sweetling, that you look With such a face of fear?" The Bride she clutched the shining cloth — (The wine spilled warm and red Between the precious cups of gold) — "I am ...afraid," she said.
"I am afraid of men who sit As though they saw the dead." "Nay, Sweet, and why should dead men leave Their graves to trouble me?
The world knows well how much I gave To holy charity.
Did I not move the Poorman's Bill That made the graveyards free?" His head sagged low, and from his lips A broken laughter fell; "I gave the poor their graveyards free Because I loved them well; [133] I swear — no man — may send — his ghost To drag — me — down — to hell!" He stood erect, with staring eyes Fixed on the empty place; Then staggered like a stricken thing, And fell upon his face.
