What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Would turn and call him Cousin — for the likeness.
OPHELIA There runs a crisscross pattern of small leaves Espalier, in a fading summer air, And there Ophelia walks, an azure flower, Whom wind, and snowflakes, and the sudden rain Of love's wild skies have purified to heav'n. There is a beauty past all weeping now In that sweet, crooked mouth, that vacant smile ; Only a lonely grey in those mad eyes, Which never on earth shall learn their loneli- ness. And when 'mid startled birds she sings lame...nt, Mocking in hope the long voice of the stream, It seems her heart's lute hath a broken string. Ivy she hath, that to old ruin clings ; And rosemary, that sees remembrance fade ; And pansics, deeper than the gloom of dreams ; 28 OPHELIA 29 But ah ! if utterable, would this earth Remain the base, unreal thing it is? Better be out of sight of peering eyes ; Out — out of hearing of all-useless words, Spoken of tedious tongues in heedless ears ! And lest, at last, the world should learn heart- secrets ; Lest that sweet wolf from some dim thicket steal ; Better the glassy horror of the stream !
