What reading level is The Vista of English Verse book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The gathered storm is ripe ; the big drops fall ; The sunburnt meadows smoke and drink the rain; The coming ghastness dothe the cattle appal, And the full flocks are driving o'er the plain ; Dashed from the clouds, the waters gush again ; The welkin opes, the yellow levin flies, And the hot fiery steam in the wide flame-lowe dies.
List ! now the thunder's rattling clamouring sound Moves slowly on, and then upswollen clangs, Shakes the high spire, and lost, dispended, drown'd, ". '* .
Still on t...he affrighted ear of terror hangs; The winds are up ; the lofty elm-tree swangs ; Again the levin and the thunder pours, And the full clouds are burst at once in stormy showers.
Spurring his palfrey o'er the watery plain, The Abbot of Saint Godwyn's convent came; 45 His chapournette was drenched with the rain, His painted girdle met with mickle shame; He backwards told his bederoll at the same.
244 THOMSON TO TENNYSON The storm increased, and he drew aside, With the poor alms-craver near to the holm to bide.
