What reading level is The Happy Bride book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
All the Duchy he trod till he knew each clod; Where the red clay stains the sea so ruddy That the foam breaks in roses along the strand, Where the white clay cups the milken pools Or the wind drifts high the hills of sand.
But the folk had all of them one thing in common — That aghast they withdrew from anything new.
So, in due reward for his bed and his board He told them old tales of piskies and buccas, How across the waste the Wish-Hound wails Hard on the heels of sin-ridden Tregeagle, How P...engerswick's wife is covered with scales Snake-like, from too much brewing of hell-broth . . .
And he snared them like birds in the web of his words.
j. 2 Yet on news they fell prone as dogs on a bone; When some noted sinner had been converted, Or some farmer's cow had slipped her calf, Or a maid they knew of had "met with misfortune. " Then indeed he was sure of raising a laugh, They almost forgot he was but a foreigner, And forgave him the sin of having no kin.
But they thought him a wizard when he foretold the Lizard Would send a bright shaft wheeling over the sky, And a bell on the Runnell Stone heave on the tide And the Wolf wink a red eye across to the Bishop.
