What reading level is Hours in a Library book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
at six years old. Classicus is an elegant scholar, who knows all the commentators upon Caesar, Horace, and Ovid, but tells you with great complacency that he will have no other book of devotion but the Holy Scrip- tures ; and Caecus, a rich man, who can't bear contra- diction, and insists upon having the best of everything : but specially plumes himself upon his humility, because he admires it so heartily in his companions.
The predominantly logical character of Law's mind may be noticed in the...se sketches; and it is perhaps too prominent in writing which appeals rather to the emotions than to the intellect. His exhortations run naturally into the form of a reductio ad absurdum. If you admit this or that duty, you must admit all ; if you must pray to God in words, you must pray by actions ; if any earthly pleasure is frivolous, the same rule is equally applicable to all earthly pleasures. There is no logical resting-place between a life devoted exclu- sively to sensual enjoyments and a life devoted exclu- sively to spiritual enjoyments.
