What reading level is Twelve Centuries of English Poetry And Prose book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

with Heaven who can con- test! Some thought it mounted to the lunar sphere, Since all things lost on earth are treasured there. There heroes' wits are kept in ponderous vases. And beaux' in snuff-boxes and tweezer cases; There broken vows and death-bed alms are found, And lovers' hearts with ends of riband bound. The courtier's promises, and sick man's pray- ers, 119 The smiles of harlots, and the teara of heirs. Cages for gnats, and chains to yoke a flea. Dried butterflies, and tomes of casuis...try.
But trust the Muse — she saw it upward rise. Though marked by none but quick, poetic eyes : (So Rome's great founder* to the heavens withdrew, To Proculus alone confessed in view) A sadden star, it shot through liquid air, And drew behind a radiant trail of hair. Not Berenice's locks" first rose so bright. The heavens bespangling with dishevelled light. The sylphs behold it kindling as it flies, 131 Anil pleased pursue its progress through the skies This the beau monde shall from the Malls sur\-ey, And hail with music its propitious ray.
