What reading level is The Journey Odes And Sonnets book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The black and silver wings against the sky Flew to the peace that you had robbed me of. O unforeseen and unreturning love, We had had our moment ! Every moment after Was bitter with the hint of your return, And you returned, and were not you. The laughter Of devils drowns the cries of souls that burn, And that's the secret dreadfulness of hell. Had you been harsh, it had been well : But you were tender when you came, And leant to me with the old smile and kiss : You said: 'Do you remember that,... and this?' And nothing was the same. You see this child. He waits Unconscious, by the undivulging gates: His ear has heard the tuning: and, intent, 34 He guesses what shall leap and flower To top the tall triumphant hour When instrument is wed to instrument. So is it with the childish heart of man That has learnt nothing since the world began. O infinitely touching! pilgrim still Up the recurring disappointment hill ! O heart as breakable as the first heart was That faltered, strange to loss ! O heart as flower-like, with each morning new, Brave to drink disappointment up like dew!
