What reading level is Essays And Tales book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The passion oflove in its nature has been thought to resemble fire, for which reasonthe words "fire" and "flame" are made use of to signify love. The wittypoets, therefore, have taken an advantage, from the doubtful meaning ofthe word "fire, " to make an infinite number of witticisms. Cowleyobserving the cold regard of his mistress's eyes, and at the same timethe power of producing love in him, considers them as burning-glassesmade of ice; and, finding himself able to live in the greatestextrem...ities of love, concludes the torrid zone to be habitable. When hismistress has read his letter written in juice of lemon, by holding it tothe fire, he desires her to read it over a second time by love's flames. When she weeps, he wishes it were inward heat that distilled those dropsfrom the limbec. When she is absent, he is beyond eighty, that is, thirty degrees nearer the pole than when she is with him. His ambitiouslove is a fire that naturally mounts upwards; his happy love is the beamsof heaven, and his unhappy love flames of hell.
