What reading level is Xariffas Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
15* 173 174 TO SOME FALSE HAIR.
How throbbed the heart? Did love alone Hold undisturbed dominion there ? Or was that heart his tottering throne, With pride and peace and glory flown, Its royal colors thickly strewn With care?
Is it some woman's radiant hair, The former pride of some proud head? Has age shot silver arrows where The sister tresses shimmering are ? Has Beauty scorned the change to share And fled?
Or has the former owner died?
What pangs or pleasures felt she last? The pressure of ...some true heart tried, Some haunting thoughts of fate defied, Or turned she to some love denied Long past?
O relic of some life gone by, Or of some bosom beating yet ! Were voice but thine how might I sigh O'er some heart's hallowed history Some long life's mournful mystery Regret !
Cold world of fashion, false and vain, How much in thy deceit we trust ! Forgetful that thy glittering train, Like this fair tress must, grain by grain, Be scattered and resolved again To dust.
THE LITTLE FIDDLER'S SONG.
