What reading level is Cyprus Historical And Descriptive From the Earliest Times to the Present Day book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On closely examining the church it was easy to trace the solid foundations of the an- cient temple, on the site of which it had been built. Rows of broken pillars, some extending along the hinder walls, indicated what had once been a cov- ered walk for the monks. Over the doorway was a huge marble tablet, on which five coats-of -arms were chiseled. The ancient temple which preceded the abbey had evidently been very extensive, and I could trace its foundations for some feet beyond the cloister w...alls. In one corner stood what had been an altar, and near it a very deep cistern. The old walls here, which are as hard as iron, had been taken in large masses to form, evidently, the abbey walls. Marble pillars lay in all directions, but I saw none as fine as the two that had attracted my attention in the inn yard at Kolossin. No trace of the abbey garden was left, beyond some olive-trees, the roots of which were buried quite impartially under the ancient and mediaeval walls. A few goats were wandering about, and gave a touch of animation to the melancholy and deserted scene.
