What reading level is Verses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Who minds now Keltic tales of yore.
Dark Druid rhymes that thrall, Deirdre's song, and wizard lore Of great CuchuUin's fall.
46 Verses by Edward MacDowell Cuchullin.
CuchuUin fought and fought in vain, 'Gainst faery folk and Druid thrall; And as the glowing sun swept down, In royal robes, red gold besown, With one last lingering glance, He sate himself in lonely state Against a giant monolith, To wait death's wooing call.
None dared approach the silent shape That froze to iron majesty, Save the... wan, mad daughters of old Night, Blind wandering maidens of the mist, Whose creeping fingers, cold and white, Oft by the sluggard dead are kissed.
And yet the monstrous Thing held sway.
No living soul dared say it nay; When lo! upon its shoulder still, Unconscious of its potent will.
There perched a preening birdling gray, A-weary of the dying day.
And all the watchers knew the lore; Cuchullin was no more.
47 Verses by Edward MacDowell Where e'er Love be.
Where e'er Love be, Tyrant he, Without merci.
