What reading level is From Adam's Peak to Elephanta : Sketches in Ceylon And India book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"And I," said T., "can also bring cannons and forces greater than yours." They then left him again, and he was no more troubled.
This story is a little disappointing in that no miracles come off, but I tell it as it was told to me by the Guru, and my friend A. having heard it substantially the same from other and independent witnesses at Tanjore, it may be taken as giving a fairly correct idea of the kind of thing that occasion- ally happens. No doubt the collector would look upon Tilleindthan ...as a "luny" — and from other stories I have heard of him (his utter obliviousness of ordinary conventionalities and proprieties, that he would lie down to sleep in the middle of tiic A VISIT TO A GNANI I43 Street to the great inconvenience of traffic, that he would sometimes keep on repeating a single vacant phrase over and over again for half a day, etc.), suoh an opinion might, I should say, fairly be justified. Yet, at the same time, there is no doubt he was a very remarkable man, and the deep reverence with which our friend the Guru spoke of him was obviously not accorded merely to the abnormal powers which he seems at times to have manifested, but to the profundity and breadth of his teaching and the personal grandeur which prevailed through all his eccentricities.
