What reading level is George the Third : a Novel 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This was not my first visit; having* 139 before 1 forsook Oxford, been of a party- to the metropolis. I did not, however* now inhabit, as then, an apartment in a splendid hotel at the west end of the town, but made choice of a very cheap and private lodging, in one of the most obscure courts eastward of Temple Bar ; considering that an expensive style of liv- ing was not quite suitable to the finances of a man who had nearly as many fingers, as he had pounds.
Such an instance of wisdom, in the ...conduct of one who had done so foolish* an action as leaving a state of security., and throwing himself into the arms of the wide world, may appear improbable and inconsistent; but it is neither: we see such things every day, as men doing great acts of weakness, while the minutiae of their conduct shall be the quintessence.
140 of rationality, and evince theutmost de- gree of magnanimous self-denial.
What else does he, who, shut up in the silence of the cloister for twenty or thirty years, disdaining to mingle with his fellow-mortals, and conversing only with the illustrious dead* exerts the brightest faculties with which heaven has endowed him to explore all the heights and depths of science, and to store his mind with the riches of litera- ture; and, when, he has done all this, dim eyes, gouty legs, and a shaking head, inform him that the season of enjoyment is gone by ; and that he must neither take delight in nor il- luminate this world, but prepare to go immediately into another, where happiness is complete, and knowledge is vain* 141 But a still more striking instance of diminutive wisdom and gigantic folly, is displayed in the carriage of what is usually termed a Great Man; who, for the hundreth part of the pains he takes to be miserable, might have secured to himself a very large share of real feli- city, and a tranquil old age.
