What reading level is Some Poetry & Prose book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Vainly to shun the tax, we seek, In penance for our sinning ; One day is forfeit from the week.
To make a clean beginning.
For, gathering stain on as we go.
Type of our shame and sorrow, White robes we wore but yesterday Are in the suds tomorrow.
Ah ! life without and life within.
In unison consenting, Six days contracting toil and sin !
One, washing and repenting.
[9] IV A BRITON'S TOAST €[ This poem was read at a banquet given by a coterie of Englishmen at Fresno, California, November 9, 1887
..., in honor of the birthday of the Prince of Wales. It was afterward printed on satin and sent to the Prince, now King Edward VII, who con- veyed an appreciative acknowledgment to Mr. Bachman.
Where'er beneath the bending skies, On natal day you ope'd your eyes, You'll grant me this — A memory lingers in each heart, At thought of which the tears will start : A mother's kiss.
In alien lands perchance we roam.
We make some alien land our home.
Through fortune's plays — Yet in that sacred vase, the heart, Lie memories, with which none would part, Of boyhood days.
