What reading level is Verses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Bright are the golden and green fields to me, Here in the Lowlands ; Sweet sings the mavis in the thorn-tree, Snowy with fragrance : But oh for a breath of the great North Sea, Girdling the mountains !
24 SKYE Good is the smell of the brine that laves Black rock and skerry, Where the great palm-leaved tangle waves Down in the green depths, And round the craggy bluff, pierced with caves, Seagulls are screaming.
Where the sun sinks beyond Hunish Head, Swimming in glory, As he goes down to his oce
...an bed Studded with islands, Flushing the Coolin with royal red, Would I were sailing !
SKYE 25 Many a hearth round that friendly shore Giveth warm welcome ; Charms still are there, as in days of yore, More than of mountains ; But hearths and faces are seen no more, Once of the brightest.
Many a poor black cottage is there, Grimy with peat smoke, Sending up in the soft evening air Purest blue incense, While the low music of psalm and prayer Rises to Heaven.
26 SKYE Kind were the voices I used to hear Round such a fireside, Speaking the mother tongue old and dear, Making the heart beat With endless tales of wonder and fear, Or plaintive singing.
