What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How seldom does the hand Of soft compassion draw again to land The feeble strucr^ler in the ocean vast Of infamy and sin ! how often cast From ev'ry hold she clings to, till the wave Of Ruin draws the being none will save Back to a sea of storms, where baneful vice Throws its temptations round her, to entice The fallen maid to fall to deeper sin, She stops, she sees no help, and plunges in ; Nor thinks of penitence or virtue more, 81 POEMS.
Till youth lias fled : then cast upon the shore Of col...d neglect, the pangs of conscience lend Their hel! to rack the fallen suff'rer's end. Or see the youth, the victim of the power Of heartless woman : he has bask'd his hour In beauty's smile of sunshine, till his eyes Dazzled hv light, ne'er pierced the thin disguise Which female coquetry was pleased to wear To lure a feeling heart into the snare Of hopeless love : then triumph in his pain And wed another. Can that man regain His former peace ? In vain resentment swells His injured bosom; 'Tis in vain pride tells The soul to rouse itself, and act a part Worthy the man of sense.
