What reading level is Walks in the Country Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet would with lights on earth enlarge the sun I Thus Preachers eloquent, who well discern Pure gospel-truths, to pride their incense bum. Astrology has had its day, but now Thousands to vainer superstitions bow : And ceremonial pageant supersedes Heart-worship, vital principle of creeds ! Oh not to acts external grace is given. But to integrity of thought, by Heaven.
THE WALK ON A DAT IN SUMMER.
Sun of the soul is truth, though oft the cloud Of pride obscures it — mists of passion shroud.
If k...nowledge were the all in all, the good Supreme, then Lucifer unchanged had stood ; Had still above angelic hosts outshone Myriads who brighten round the sapphire throne, Comitless, as ocean-waves seen far and far Glowing beneath the Day-God's blazing car. But knowledge is to good or ill allied As colour 'd by himiility or pride.
As wave atlantic, urged by wintry gales, A miu-al pile of porphyry assails ; Thus mob-impelled, ambitious spirits strive Old institutions from their base to drive : Prophets of woes themselves create, disdain To aid their hving instruments of gain, And burdens that they ought themselves to bear On others' shoulders place, and fix them there.
