What reading level is Poems On Various Subjects book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If these put Bayard's gallant lance in rest, And Guesclin's banner bore before the rest, Then let them reap such labour's just reward, But small the profit, though the blows were hard. That fame which wit or folly may assume, And minstrel's lay, and alabaster tomb, PROTEUS. 45 Can this short draught the thirst of myriads slake, Content to follow in their fathers' wake ? No, sure that voice hath spoke diviner things Which saith, " Come down, the many shall be kings ! Strike in brave nations, thr...ones no longer bear, Or rear them but their sovereignty to share. " High o'er the tumult reason casts her ray, And smiles the doubts of prejudice away. Thus on the Alps the summer's sun dissolves The marks of bears, and wintry tracks of wolves ; Fools now may trace the historian's warning page, And bigots prate of consecrating age. And fades the present, all too fleet and fast For man to waste it lingering o'er the past. His march shall giant intellect restrain, Bowed down and fettered by a rusty chain ?
