What reading level is Poems of Adam Lindsay Gordon book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And some blew matches and some drew swords, And one of them wildly hurl'd his pike, But she clear'd by inches the oaken boards, And she carried me yards beyond the dyke;Then gaily over the long green downWe gallop'd, heading for Westbrooke town.
The green down slopes to the great grey moor, The grey moor sinks to the gleaming Skelt --Sudden and sullen, and swift and sure, The whirling water was round my belt. She breasted the bank with a savage snort, And a backward glance of her bloodshot eye,... And "Our Lady of Andover's" flash'd like thought, And flitted St. Agatha's nunnery, And the firs at "The Ferngrove" fled on the right, And "Falconer's Tower" on the left took flight.
And over "The Ravenswold" we raced -- We rounded the hill by "The Hermit's Well" --We burst on the Westbrooke Bridge -- "What haste? What errand?" shouted the sentinel. "To Beelzebub with the Brewer's knave!" "Carolus Rex and he of the Rhine!"Galloping past him, I got and gave In the gallop password and countersign, All soak'd with water and soil'd with mud, With the sleeve of my jerkin half drench'd in blood.
