What reading level is The Return of the Guards And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
213 Year after year, in vague self-torturings, I have stood nightly on moon-lighted cliffs Near the soft-sounding ocean — I have called The everlasting stars to answer me From their bright quietness ; I have invoked Forgotten names and forms of ancient gods — Ophion, and the mystic three who droop From fading thrones, among the caverns old, And on the clouded hills of Samothrace.
But not from these, nor from the younger heavens Filled with rejoicing gods, nor from beneath, When, maddened with t...he sickness of suspense, I have thrown loathing off, and called aloud To the swart powers of sullen Erebus, Down deepening through his separate gulfs of death, — Nor yet from that far God — the nameless one — The everlasting, the unsearchable — Who in his fathomless infinitude Clasps equally the undivulged abyss Of darkness and the inmost home of light, — Has come or voice or token, to unfold How we, of our own natures full of love, As are the heavens of day, or the broad sea Of waters, — in this solitary spot — This desert isle — remote from Gods and men.
