What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Devoid of fear, he waits the life to come, In persecution, or in martyrdom Trusting alone in God. Hope lights his way Thro' death's dim, shadowy vale, to everlasting day.
98 POEMS BY J. S. FRELIGH.
V.
The patriotic Statesman, in the hour When foes invade, or rebel factions low'r, Inspir'd by Hope, rolls back corruption's tide, And combats envy, ignorance and pride. He counteracts the plans of dark intrigue The midnight council, and the traitorous league, Fearless stands forth in Liberty's defen...ce, With thy throne-shaking pow'r, all-conquering Eloquence.
VI.
The weary soldier at the close of day, Thinks of his little ones, far, far away ; Long cherish'd memories before him bring His childhood's home ; the willow-shaded spring, The branching elms, the small white cot he sees, And the blue smoke slow-curling thro' the trees. And then Hope whispers, when the war shall cease, He safely shall return, and end his days in peace.
VII.
Whether the sailor climbs the lofty mast, That reels and trembles in the fearful blast Or treads at midnight lone the cheerless deck, Or struggling, clings to the wild floating wreck, Or in his hammock, list'ning ocean's roar, Or thrown on some inhospitable shore Still float before him the remember'd forms Of his far-distant home Hope cheers the child of storms.
