What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So week after week — he struggled on And life in the balance hung ; And medical science could help him naught, Nor surgical skill avail — Yet his courage held to the last, his pluck Never seemed to give in or fail.
And so to the end — he struggled on.
And fought the grim fight with death.
It was almost more than his friends could bear — To see him strive for breath — They gathered round him — he tried to speak.
The words they could hardly catch — He whispered — " Bring me a polo stick !
One I p...layed in — the final match — " They brought him up a polo stick, His fingers the handle pressed, Then they left him there — in the darkened room.
For he said he wished to rest ; 96 TOLD BY A POLO STICK And dreams came out of the past, sweet dreams, Of days too quickly spent — The swing of the thoro'bred one's stride. The joys of the tournament.
Softly, slowly around the bed The evening shadows came, — Never again at Hurlingham He '11 join in " the glorious game " — Never again he '11 cleave the air — In "the rush of the furious ride, " For they found him dead with a smile on his face.
