What reading level is Classic Myth in the Poetic Drama of the Age of Elizabeth book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

That realization is not very conspicuous, however; one is almost certain that, given the op- portunity, he would spend another year much as before, and the moral in this "Moral Masque, " as its authors call it, is not op- pressive. Nor is it truly a Masque. It possesses Masque ele- ments in the dancing and the music; there is the spectacular element in the Scenes where Folly whips Time across the stage, where Antonio and Bacchanalian, Conceit and Detraction, Virtue and Vice, Humor and Folly app...ear; there is a suggestion of antimasque in the entrance of the clowns at the beginning of Act III; but the play possesses a fairly well-constructed plot, and the interest centres, not in the Masque features, which are merely accessory, but in the plot and the poetry.
An especial interest attaches itself to this play in the question of authorship. How much of it was Dekker's? What part was Ford's? And did Dekker borrow his song, "What bird so sings, yet so does wail" 1 from Lyly?
It has been fairly well agreed upon that the foundation of the play is Dekker's older Phaeton.
