What reading level is The World's Best Poetry, volume 8 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

a poor slave-mother with her little child pressed nigh: Then the bold, blue eye grew tender, and the old harsh face grew mild, As he stooped between the jeering ranks and kissed the negro's child!
    The shadows of his stormy life that moment fell apart, And they who blamed the bloody hand forgave the loving heart; That kiss from all its guilty means redeemed the good intent, And round the grisly fighter's hair the martyr's aureole bent!
    Perish with him the folly that seeks through evil go
...od! Long live the generous purpose unstained with human blood! Not the raid of midnight terror, but the thought which underlies; Not the borderer's pride of daring, but the Christian's sacrifice.
    Nevermore may yon Blue Ridges the Northern rifle hear, Nor see the light of blazing homes flash on the negro's spear; But let the free-winged angel Truth their guarded passes scale, To teach that right is more than might, and justice more than mail!
