What reading level is Stories in Verse book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As angels came to shepherds in Chaldee; They were not ours. He fancied that most thoughts Were whispered to the soul, or good, or bad. The bad were like a demon, a vast shape With measureless black wings, that when it dared, Placed its clawed foot upon the necks of men, And with the very shadow of itself, Made their lives darker than a starless night. He did not strive to picture out the good, Or give to them a figure; but he knew No glory of the sunset could compare With the clear splendor of ...one noble deed.
He proudly dreamed that to no other mind Had these imaginings been uttered. Alas! poor heart, how many have awoke, And found their newest thoughts as old as time-- Their brightest fancies woven in the threads Of ancient poems, history or romance, And knowledge still elusive and far off.
V.
The days that lengthen into years went on. The quadroon girl who fainted on the cliff Was Ruth; now, blooming into womanhood, She looked on Karagwe, and seeing there Something above the level of the slave, Watched him with interest in all his ways.
