What reading level is Shakespeares Funeral And Other Papers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How awkward is " did thee ever please " ! — how unnecessary after " guard them " the rest of the line ! — how evidently is " harms " put in the plural for the rhyme, to the damage of the idiom ! The next two lines are g-ood — " He can requite thee ; for he knows the charms That call fame on such gentle acts as these ; " but not so the two that follow — " And he can spread thy name o'er lands and seas — Whatever clime the sun's bright circle warms. " How could Milton do this when English was not... read beyond our own islands ? And why make the boast ungrammatical, as well as empty, by the second of the two lines ?
" Lift not thy spear against the Muse's bower. " An axe or a crowbar might be effective against a bower, but not a spear. The " great Emathian conqueror" — meaning Alexander — is not only stilted, but obscure ; for few would remember the name of the district in which he was born. The final line of the sonnet redeems it, and the emphasis given to the adjective " bare " by plac- ing it last, conveys with singular effect the idea of desolation; but why place a flawed gem of Milton's in such a collection beside his more perfect work '.
