What reading level is Romance; Two Lectures book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In Kubla Khan, a poem which some would choose as the high-water mark of English ro- mantic poetry, he gets his effect from the description of a landscape combining the ex- tremes of beauty and terror: But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover !
A savage place ! as holy and enchanted As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted By woman wailing for her demon lover !
And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething, It flung up momently the sacred ...river.
Five miles meandering with a mazy motion Through wood and dale the sacred river ran, Then reached the caverns measureless to man, And sank in tumult to a lifeless ocean ; And 'mid this tumult Kubla heard from far Ancestral voices prophesying war!
IMITATION AND FORGERY 55 Romance demands scenery ; and it should never be forgotten that the age of Pope, the age of symmetry and correctness in poetry, was an age when the taste for wild scenery in painting and in gardening was at its height If the house was set in order, the garden broke into a wilderness.
