What reading level is Essays in English Literature, 1780-1860 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


To many persons, however, the results are more interesting than theanalysis of their qualities and principles; so let us go to the songsthemselves. To my fancy the three best of Moore's songs, and three ofthe finest songs in any language, are "Oft in the stilly Night, " "Whenin Death I shall calm recline, " and "I saw from the Beach. " They allexemplify what has been pointed out above, the complete adaptation ofwords to music and music to words, coupled with a decidedly high qualityof poetical
...merit in the verse, quite apart from the mere music. It canhardly be necessary to quote them, for they are or ought to be familiarto everybody; but in selecting these three I have no intention ofdistinguishing them in point of general excellence from scores, nayhundreds of others. "Go where Glory waits thee" is the first of theIrish melodies, and one of those most hackneyed by the enthusiasm ofbygone Pogsons. But its merit ought in no way to suffer on that accountwith persons who are not Pogsons.
