What reading level is The Old Huntsman And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
26 A Working Party Three hours ago he blundered up the trench, Sliding and poising, groping with his boots ; Sometimes he tripped and lurched against the walls With hands that pawed the sodden bags of chalk. He couldn't see the man who walked in front ; Only he heard the drum and rattle of feet Stepping along the trench-boards, — often splashing Wretchedly where the sludge was ankle-deep.
Voices would grunt, " Keep to your right, — make way ! When squeezing past the men from the front-line : Wh...ite faces peered, puffing a point of red ; Candles and braziers glinted through the chinks And curtain-flaps of dug-outs ; then the gloom Swallowed his sense of sight ; he stooped and swore Because a sagging wire had caught his neck.
27 A flare went up ; the shining whiteness spread And flickered upward, showing nimble rats, And mounds of ghmmering sand-bags, bleached with rain ; Then the slow, silver moment died in dark. The wind came posting by with chilly gusts And buffeting at corners, piping thin And dreary through the crannies ; rifle-shots Would split and crack and sing along the night.
