What reading level is Romantic Ballads book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Like the wave of the wild North main, Foaming and frothing came on our foe ; Proud of his triumphs, proud of his train, He thought to lay us low : But, from Denmark's lines of oak, A horrible, horrible volley outbroke ; Then tumbled his mast, His courage fell fast ; And the wave, which resembled his furious mood, Was now with his blood embrued. CANTATA. 133 CHORUS. This is Denmark's holyday ; Dance, ye maidens ! Sing, ye men ! Tune, ye harpers ! Blush, ye heroes ! This is Denmark's holyday. A V...OICE. But, hark ! what sobbing and what mournful notes Are mixing with our hymns of ardent joy ! Hush, hush, be still ; A band of white-rob'd maids approaches slow, With lily chaplets round their yellow locks, With heavy tear-drops in their sunken eye ; Broken and trembling sounds The melancholy song, Accompanied by harp-tones rising mild. YOUTHFUL MAIDENS. Love, with rosy fetter, Held us firmly bound ; 134 CANTATA. Pure unmix'd enjoyment Grateful here we found. Bosom, bosom meeting, 'Gainst our youths we press'd ; Bright the moon arose, then, Glad to see us blest.
