What reading level is Along the Bosphorus, And Other Sketches book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
157 the near kinswoman of queens, though the of- fended monarch generously had the ceiling of her room "mended to keep out wind and rain." The forlorn lady passed from deep melancholy to spasms that touched her brain. Even in such pitiful condition she was closely watched and guarded by the nervous coward, who pretended to believe there was an Arabella plot, with Ral- eigh at its head, secreted in the Tower.
For a year the insane Countess lived, gentle and harmless, chattering like a little chi...ld. Her one amusement was singing songs of love and longing, learned in happy days, with the lute, whose trembling strings made the saddest strains ear ever heard. The heart-breaking music soft- ened even her jailer; he grew compassionate, and she wandered at will through the doleful halls and the garden. But the wan face never bright- ened; she faded slowly, drooped, and died.
In the chill midnight of autumn her wornout body was brought by the black-flowing river to Westminster Abbey, in a miserable coffin with- out a plate, and laid away in that sanctuary with no ceremony, not even a prayer.
