What reading level is Adventures in Contentment book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is a tender shoot, easily blasted by cold winds, the creative instinct: but persistent.
It has many adventitious buds. A late frost, 76 ADVENTURES IN destroying the freshness of its early verdure, may be the means of a richer growth in later and more favourable days.
» For a week I left my helve standing there in the corner. I did not even look at it. I was slain. I even thought of getting up in the night and putting the helve on the coals — secretly. Then, suddenly, one morning, I took it u...p not at all tenderly, indeed with a humorous appreciation of my own absurd- ities, and carried it out into the yard. An axe-helve is not a mere ornament but a thing of sober purpose. The test, after all, of axe- helves is not sublime perfection, but service.
We may easily find flaws in the verse of the master — how far the rhythm fails of the final perfect music, how often uncertain the rhyme — but it bears within it, hidden yet evident, that certain incalculable fire which kindles and will continue to kindle the souls of men.
