What reading level is The Life of Christ; a Poem book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At length the Saviour to the Herald went; But mark the strange, the wonderful event: So soon as John his great Redeemer saw, He paused in silence with religious awe; With prostrate rev'rence at his feet he fell, And boldly hailed him King of Israel; And, while astonished the spectators seem, Trembling he asks to be baptized of him.
The Saviour, smiling, begged him to desist, And in an instant all his fears dismissed; Explained those mandates which he must fulfill, To do and suffer his great Fat...her's will.
The wondering sage reluctantly obeyed This strange commission which his Lord displayed ; For well he knew that no unholy deed Could or repentance or ablution need.
"No sooner Christ, who came mankind to save, Had consecrated Jordan's limpid wave,— Than in a moment all the clouds remove, And give a passage to a mystic Dove.
Its brightness seemed too glorious to behold, Its breast was silver and its wings were gold; On every part celestial colors shine, And all who saw it thought the form divine.
