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


'T is a long time since hand in hand together.
We first commenced to walk life's rough high- way.
And we have learned, since then, sad truths which tether Our hearts more firmly, as our forms decay.
THE PILGRIMAGE OF THE CHILDLESS. 91 Simple our lives, our wishes unaspiring, Our children's memory sacredly we keep ; Little on earth we find ourselves desiring.
Save, in God's time, among their bones to sleep.
Therefore, when Spring has warmed the earth's cold bosom.
And grassy mounds with fragrant
... lilies dressed, We make our pilgrimage to tend the blossom.
O'er the green graves wherein the nurslings rest.
There grief once more unseals its flowing foun- tain ; Still round the spot our trembling footsteps stray.
Till the slant sunbeams from the distant moun- tain, With trailing shadow, usher out the day.
92 THE PILGRIMAGE OF THE CHILDLESS.
There, with our chiklren, we hold sweet commu- nion, With strengthened heart go forth to meet the years ; Waiting with patience for that blest reunion, Undimmed by time, unsullied by tears.
