What reading level is The Swept Hearth book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Pain's like a country stretching everywhere, A country so immense, and so remote That sense of form and shape is lost or blurred.
There one may watch one's self, a creature furred, Flying from fear, or writhing in a trap.
Convulsed and palpitant, or feel the sap Of hope run out as if one wore a coat Of tender bark the woodman's axe had ringed.
Or one may watch one's soaring spirit winged From some hid cover by the hunter's gun, And left to die unseen by anyone.
36 So when I say That love has be...en my fellow all the way, 'Tis not some vague bright vision that I mean.
In labyrinthian countries love has been Shelter from fear that snapped at fleeing flank; Peace for the furred thing creeping home to die; Sap to the seedling yearning towards the sky; Warmth for the breast and warning for the wings; Drink for all thirst, food for all hungerings ; Light of star when moons reeled down and sank In purple marshes where the weeds were rank.
Whence things that went to drink did not return.
To this my Love my soul and body burn Tapers that all the winds of heaven may fan And not extinguish.
