What reading level is Essays On Various Subjects book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And if we cannot oppose instances of equalweight with those of Nysus and Euryalus, Theseus and Pirithous, Pyladesand Orestes, let it be remembered, that it is because the recorders ofthose characters were men, and that the very existence of them is merelypoetical.
[6] See Voltaire's Prophecy concerning Rousseau.
ONTRUE AND FALSEMEEKNESS.
A LOW voice and soft address are the common indications of a well-bredwoman, and should seem to be the natural effects of a meek and quietspirit; but they are ...only the outward and visible signs of it: for theyare no more meekness itself, than a red coat is courage, or a black onedevotion.
YET nothing is more common than to mistake the sign for the thingitself; nor is any practice more frequent than that of endeavouring toacquire the exterior mark, without once thinking to labour after theinterior grace. Surely this is beginning at the wrong end, likeattacking the symptom and neglecting the disease. To regulate thefeatures, while the soul is in tumults, or to command the voice whilethe passions are without restraint, is as idle as throwing odours intoa stream when the source is polluted.
