What reading level is The Viking book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
[To slave.'] Reach me yonder horn.
Or I mistake, he 's worth a tribe of Swedes.
[Drinks.
HAEOLD.
For harp and rime, I grant you ; not for arms.
EYVIND.
That 's not to say for one whose beard is new, Whose youthful sinews love the chase, whose eyes I 're seen shoot joyous fire, when in high mood He sang of glorious battle. Time for him.
I warrant you will find his veins are filled With life-blood of brave foemen doomed to die, If chance makes viking of the skald.
HAROLD.
Uncle, I well esteem the... goodly youth, but know, I 'm not too well secured upon the throne.
The watchful gods have warned me of a foe That will o'ertop me, drive me from the land, Unless I join another strength to mine.
EYVIND.
And what make you from this ?
HAROLD.
Is 't hard to read ?
What foe but Denmark need I fear ? What strength But Sweden's may I join to mine ?
46 THE VIKING.
The gods So said?
HAROLD.
Unworthy of great Odin's care Would be the king incapable to see The meaning of the gods in speech so clear.
