What reading level is The Tweed, And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
177 One tender look has the wife for Help, A tear-eyed glance for her child ; Out will she 'mid the fearsome night, For him that lies on the wild.
With milk in vial, her sole resource, Laid in the warmth of her breast, She and Help 'gainst the 'wildering snow, To her God she leaves the rest !
Fearless she faced the gruesome sough, And swirl of blindin' drift, There was no a star in a' the sky, Or a glint o' moon i' the lift !
Bareheaded slept he 'neath the mound, Where the wreath was o'er him l...aid, There in the folds of the winding snow, Help found him wrapt in his plaid !
M 178 THE HERD'S WIFE.
Oh ! how she clasped him there, and poured Life-warmth through the chilled frame, Heaven tender looked on her wifely love, He breathed and blessed her name !
THE prophet-preacher was first laid in the Churchyard of Auchinleck, in the Laird's aisle. After six weeks his body was taken up, and thence carried or dragged by a party of dragoons to the place of public execution on a hill near the adjoining village of Cumnock, where it was re-interred " out of contempt.
