What reading level is The Thankless Muse book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I wandered from the crowded rooms, And groped through darkened corridors, And stumbled up long staircases, Until I reached the upper floors; THE LAST OF HIS PEOPLE. 85 And found a chamber far apart, Where neither light nor sound there came; And fell upon the bed and sunk To sleep, as sinks a dying flame.
CANTO III.
In weary dreams I seemed to hear The ring of bells and trumpets blown, And voices calling, and the tramp Of feet upon the pavement stone.
And then I fathomed darker gulfs Of sleep, t...oo deep for dreams to sound ; Until mine eyes unclosed and traced The figures on the carpet s ground, And idly watched a shadow vine, Whose leaves did tremble evermore Within the square of still sunshine That lay upon the chamber floor.
But suddenly I started up ; My heart stopped like a deadly pain That anodynes have put to sleep, My thoughts came piercing back again.
86 THE LAST OF HIS PEOPLE.
I tottered to the window seat: The port was empty, and the town As silent in the broad full light As though the midnight stars shone down.
