What reading level is The Forest Sanctuary And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For ever would she cling, A brooding dove, to that sole spot of earth Where she hath loved, and given her children birth, And heard their first sweet voices. There may Spring Array no path, renew no flower, no leaf, But hath its breath of home, its claim to farewell grief.
F 2 68 THE FOREST SANCTUARY.
XXXIV.
I look'd on Leonor, and if there seem'd A cloud of more than pensiveness to rise, In the faint smiles that o'er her features gleam 'd, And the soft darkness of her serious eyes, Misty with ...tender gloom ; I call'd it nought But the fond exile's pang, a lingering thought Of her own vale, with all its melodies And living light of streams. Her soul would rest Beneath your shades, I said, bowers of the gorgeous west !
XXXV.
Oh ! could we live in visions ! could we hold Delusion faster, longer, to our breast, When it shuts from us, with its mantle's fold, That which we see not, and are therefore blest f But they, our lov'd and loving, they to whom We have spread out our souls in joy and gloom, Their looks and accents, unto ours address'd, Have been a language of familiar tone Too long to breathe, at last, dark sayings and unknown.
