What reading level is Poetical Works of William Cullen Bryant book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Are joined in their fall, and, side by side, Come clinging along their unsteady way ; As friend with friend, or husband with wife, Makes hand in hand the passage of life ; Each mated flake Soon sinks in the dark and silent lake.
226 LATER POEMS.
Lo ! while we are gazing, in swifter haste Stream down the snows, till the air is white, As, myriads by myriads madly chased.
They fling themselves from their shadowy height The fair, frail creatures of middle sky, "What speed they make, with their grav...e so nigh ; Flake after flake, To lie in the dark and silent lake !
I see in thy gentle eyes a tear ; They turn to me in sorrowful thought ; Thou thinkest of friends, the good and dear.
Who were for a time, and now are not ; Like these fair children of cloud and frost, That glisten a moment and then are lost, Flake after flake — All lost in the dark and silent hike.
Yet look again, for the clouds divide ; A gleam of blue on the water lies ; And far away, on the mountain-side, A sunbeam falls from the ojsening skies, But the hurrying host that flew between The cloud and the water, no more is seen ; Flake after flake, At rest in the dark and silent lake.
