What reading level is Allan Ramsay book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such subjects as The Flytirt of Luckie Duff and Luckie Brown, A Dookiii in the Nor" Loch, and A Whiggish Lament, were not the kind of themes his calmer and maturer judgment would care to contem- plate being handed down to posterity as specimens of his work.
In 1719 Ramsay appears to have concluded, from the extensive sale his poems enjoyed even in broadside form, that the trade of a bookseller would not only be more remunerative than a wigmaker's, but would also be more in accord with his liter...ary tastes and aspirations. For some months he had virtually carried on the two trades concurrently, his reputation undoubtedly attracting a large number of customers to his shop to have their wigs dressed by the popular poet of the day. But as his fame increased, so did his vanity. Of praise he was inordinately fond. ' Tell Allan he's as great a poet as Pope, and ye may get what ye like from him,' said the witty and outspoken Lord Elibank to a friend. The charge had more than a grain of truth in it.
