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


Dizzying with these, I glare and tantalise At the motley hides of books which moulder here : ' On Choosing a Career, ' ' Ten Thousand a Year ' ; ' Ellis on Sheep/ ' Lamb's Tales, ' a doleful Gay, A has-been Young, dead ' Lives, ' vermilion Gray, And a whole corps of 1790 twelves.
My eye goes blurred along these gruesome shelves, My brain whirs ' Poems of . . . Poems of . . . ' like a clock ; And I stare for my life at the square black ebony block 36 SICK-BED Of darkness in the open window-frame
....
Then my thoughts flash in one white searching flame On my little lost daughter ; I gasp and grasp to see Her shy smile pondering out who I might be, Her rathe-ripe rounded cheeks, near- violet eyes. Long may I stare ; her stony fate denies The vision of her, though tired Fancy's sight Scrawl with pale curves the dead and scornful night.
All the night's full of questing flights and calls Of owls and bats, white owls from time-struck walls, Bats with their shrivelled speech and dragonish wings.
Beneath, a strange step crunches the ash path, where None goes so late, I know : the mute vast air Wakes to a great sigh.
