What reading level is Essays of Elia By Charles Lamb volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Household rumors touch him not. Some faint murmur, indicative of life going on within Bssa^s ot Blia the house, soothes him, while he knows not distinctly what it is. He is not to know any thing, not to think of any thing. Servants gliding up or down the distant staircase, tread- ing as upon velvet, gently keep his ear awake, CO long as he troubles not himself further than with some feeble guess at their errands. Exac- ler knowledge would be a burden to him ; he can just endure the pressure of ...conjecture. He opens his eye faintly at the dull stroke of the muffled knocker, and closes it again without asking* 'Who was it?" He is flattered by a general notion that inquiries are making after him, but he cares not to know the name of the inquirer. In the general stillness, and awful hush of the house, he lies in state, and feels his sovereignty.
To be sick is to enjoy monarchial preroga- tives. Compare the silent tread, and quiet min- istry, almost by the eye only, with which he is served — with the careless demeanor, the uncer- emonious goings in and out (slapping of doors, or leaving them open) of the very same attend- ants, when he is getting a little better — and you will confess, that from the bed of sickness (throne let me rather call it) to the elbow-chair of convalescence, is a fall from dignity, amount- ing to a deposition.
