What reading level is Poetical Works book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What is this World?--A term which men have gotTo signify, not one in ten knows what;A term, which with no more precision passesTo point out herds of men than herds of asses;In common use no more it means, we find, Than many fools in same opinions join'd. Can numbers, then, change Nature's stated laws?Can numbers make the worse the better cause? 360Vice must be vice, virtue be virtue still, Though thousands rail at good, and practise ill. Wouldst thou defend the Gaul's destructive rage, Because ...vast nations on his part engage?Though, to support the rebel Caesar's cause, Tumultuous legions arm against the laws;Though scandal would our patriot's name impeach, And rails at virtues which she cannot reach, What honest man but would with joy submitTo bleed with Cato, and retire with Pitt?[96] 370 Steadfast and true to virtue's sacred laws, Unmoved by vulgar censure, or applause, Let the World talk, my friend; that World, we know, Which calls us guilty, cannot make us so. Unawed by numbers, follow Nature's plan;Assert the rights, or quit the name of man.
