What reading level is Songs of the Plough book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Long my state I have been loathing, Growing what is good for nothing, Scarce a blade or cheerful blossom On my rugged, barren bosom.
Idleness is irksome, wasteful, Both to land and man distasteful ; Earth's enjoyment is in bearing, Growing, giving, yielding, sharing.
Welcome then the stalwart horses, Welcome then the ploughshare's forces ; Let the ploughman's foot come o'er me And to fruitfulness restore me.
1917.
VIS NATURAE MONG the bowers of Invergappy There was a man lived long and happy Hi...s only med'cine, I assure ye, The same as Adam's vis naturae.
His eye was bright, his cheek was ruddy, His whole appearance was a study ; In health robust, serene and pure aye, The blest result of vis naturae.
On nauseous nostrums, salts and senna, He never spent a single penny ; If ails he had the ready cure aye For all his ails was vis naturae.
Whate'er the season or the weather He found them pleasant altogether ; Himself to them he did inure aye Backed up, sustained by vis naturae.
So I advise you, too, to try it ; But stay !
