What reading level is The Complete Poetical Works book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So joys that slip like dead leaves down, And hopes burnt out that die in ashes, Rise restless from their graves to crown Our mother's brow with fadeless flashes.
And lives wrapped in tradition's mist These honored halls to-day are haunting, And lips by lips long withered kissed The sagas of the past are chanting.
Scornful of absence' envious bar BROWN smiles upon the mystic meeting Of those her sons, who, sundered far, In brotherhood of heart are greeting; Her wayward children wandering on Wher...e setting stars are lowly burning, But still in worship toward the dawn That gilds their souls' dear Mecca turning; [ 153 ] NEW AND OLD Or those who, armed for God's own fight, Stand by his word through fire and slaughter, Or bear our banner's starry light Far-flashing through the Gulf 's blue water.
For where one strikes for light and truth The right to aid, the wrong redressing, The mother of his spirit's youth Sheds o'er his soul her silent blessing.
She gained her crown a gem of flame When KNEASS fell dead in victory gory; New splendor blazed upon her name When IVES' young life went out in glory !
