What reading level is Anti Achitophel 1682 8 7 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But since the _Jews_ to him shew'd open Hate, Lest that his presence should embroil the State;And that the _Jews_ might have no cause to sin, He's sent to rule the Tribe of _Benjamin_. Thus two great Factions in _Judea_ rose, }So hotly each the other did oppose, }'Twas fear'd they'd fall at last from Words to Blows. }Each side most zealous for the King appears, Each full of Jealousies and disturbing Fears, Each pleads for _Amazia_ and the Laws, God and Religion both do make their Cause:Both Loy...alty profess, both opposite, }Both would persuade that each was in the right, }Tho' both contrary shew as day and night. }Sweet _Azaria_ with these Troubles mov'd, On that side hated, and by this belov'd;Fearing th' inveterate Malice of his Foes, Which he sought to avoid, not to oppose, And lest they should their sought Occasion find, }To tax him of an ill ambitious mind, }By seeing all the _Jews_ to him so kind; }Lest he should grow i'th' King's Opinion worse, He seeks for Council how to steer his Course, That he might to the Court give no Offence, But live wrapt up in his own fair Innocence, The wise and thoughtful _Hushai_ he doth find, And thus to him he breaks his troubled Mind, Great Councellor, and Favorite of Heav'n, To whom the Blessing of true Wisdom's giv'n, Which by no Mortal can possessed be, Whose Thoughts are not inform'd by Loyalty.
