What reading level is The Poems of Schiller First Period book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
(In confusion. ) Nothing, my Semele! Black gall torments Me also--Yes! a sharp, reproachful look With lovers often passes as black gall-- Yet ox-eyes, after all, are not so ugly.
SEMELE. Oh, Beroe, for shame! they're quite the worst That any head can possibly contain! And then her cheeks of green and yellow hues, The obvious penalty of poisonous envy-- Zeus oft complains to me that that same shrew Each night torments him with her nauseous love, And with her jealous whims, --enough, I'm sure..., Into Ixion's wheel to turn all heaven.
JUNO. (Raving up and down in extreme confusion. ) No more of this!
SEMELE. What, Beroe! So angry? Have I said more than what is true? Said more Than what is wise?
JUNO. Thou hast said more, young woman, Than what is true--said more than what is wise! Deem thyself truly blest, if thy blue eyes Smile thee not into Charon's bark too soon! Saturnia has her altars and her temples, And wanders amongst mortals--that great goddess Avenges naught so bitterly as scorn SEMELE.
