What reading level is Poetical Works 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Then, with deep sonorous clangor Calmly answering their sweet anger.
When the wrangling bells had ended.
Slowly struck the clock eleven, And, from out the silent heaven.
Silence on the town descended.
Silence, silence everywhere.
On the earth and in the air.
Save that footsteps here and there Of some burgher home returning.
By the street lamps faintly burning.
For a moment woke the echoes Of the ancient town of Bruges.
But amid my broken slumbers Still I heard those magic numbers.
As they loud ...proclaimed the flight And stolen marches of the night ; 209 THE BELFRY OF BRUGES Till their chimes in sweet collision Mingled with each wandering vision, Mingled with the fortune-telling Gypsy-bands of dreams and fancies, Which amid the waste expanses Of the silent land of trances Have their solitary dwelling ; All else seemed asleep in Bruges, In the quaint old Flemish city.
And I thought how like these chimes Are the poet's airy rhymes, All his rhymes and roundelays.
His conceits, and songs, and ditties.
