What reading level is The Veiled Figure And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


And all at once I sprang Up the steep mountain track, and reached the feet Of that same awful Figure, and I strove To draw aside the veil from brow and eyes While from the valley rose a muttered prayer To all the gods, and piteous, straining eyes Followed my every movement.
Then a shout Rang forth ; I think I drew the veil aside ; But stricken with intolerable light I fell, as one that perishes.
But still The shout rang through my swoon ; 'twas as the sound Of multitudes in some beleagured town
... When a delivering army storms the gates And brings them succour. Then it grew more faint, And sank to one low murmur of content. And then I woke and heard thy voice.
So now 1 know thy song is true, and that is all We need to know, both thou and I.
—Is that 32 The sound of steps approaching? — Dear, be strong ; 'Twill soon be over. Have we not good hope That this, which seems to part us, hath no power To touch our very selves, our souls ? Not Time, Not Death, nor that vague After-life can touch My love for thee.
