What reading level is The Village of Mortimer And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And those who were watching with much agitation And wondering what these strange things might portend, Decided to seek more advantageous station And thither their footsteps accordingly bend.
The moon through dark clouds was now fitfully shining And running along by the foam-beaten shore, They catch just a glimpse of the Bridge's outlining, Confirming suspicions indulged in before.
A fearful large gap just near where the Bridge centred Was dimly discerned through the gloom and the spray; And dea...th's dismal portals all suddenly entered And perished that night in the depths of the Tay.
And now over hill-top, through town and through city, Like wild-fire the tidings most rapidly spread ; The Tay Bridge had fallen and still greater pity, That numbers had joined in the ranks of the dead.
65 And now on the shore anxious groups had assembled, Their faces all blanching with terror and fear, At the wind and the spray they shivered and trembled ; But heeded them not nor the wild night so drear.
Their thoughts were all fixed on the Bridge that had broken, The train that had fallen headlong to the sea, The friends that had perished, of whom not a token Nor vestige remaining could any one see.
