What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
23 Her queenly form, with tear-stained face uprist, For God has wiped the tear-drops from her eye ; Her Calv'ry changed to Olivet, Whose Justice never does forget.
What nation but our own loved island-queen, Eire, untainted as a mountain-rill, Noble of soul, majestic in her mien, Oft doomed to ruin, but unconquered still. She can forgive her wrongs, but yet The wrong-doers alone forget!
Star of the Sea STAR of the Sea ! from beetling crest to crest My bark shall swing, as gently as a cot A moth...er rocks and watches ; it shall not Be tost like driftwood at the waves' behest.
Nay, e'en the ocean's boom shall lull to rest, The driving spray but cool my fevered brain, And I shall sleep, as if a child again, My head soft-pillowed on my mother's breast.
Shine on, Stella Maris ! through the dark, Though break the billows on an iron shore, Fond eyes are raised to thee from many a bark Where sails are furled, the gale shall swell no more.
For those that catch thy gleaming in the night Are soon to anchor 'neath the harbour-light.
