What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It splits the shingles off the roof like a wedge, It lashes her clothes and her hair, But slowly she fights her way to the western ledge, With the strength of her despair.
Through the flying spray, through the rain-cloud's shattered stream, What shapes in the distance grope, Like figures that haunt the shore of a dreadful dream ? She is wild with a desperate hope.
Have pity, merciful Heaven ! Can it be ? Is it no vision that mocks ?
ALL'S WELL. 131 From billow to billow the headlong plunging se...a Has tossed them high on the rocks ; And the hollow skiff like a child's toy lies on the ledge This side of the roaring foam, And up from the valley of death, from the grave's drear edge, Like ghosts of men they come !
O sweetly, sweetly shines the sinking sun And the storm is swept away, Piled high in the east are the cloud-heaps purple and dun, And peacefully dies the day.
But a sweeter peace falls soft on the grateful souls In the lonely isle that dwell, And the whisper and rush of every wave that rolls Seem murmuring, '* All is well.
