What reading level is Legends of the City of Mexico book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Therefore — in spite of his wearing his own flesh and bones in the usual manner and being alive in them — it was certain that he was a spectre: because it 'See Note VIII.
[96] THE LIVING SPECTRE was certain that his journeying could have been made only on devils' wings. The day on which this marvel happened is known most exactly: because it happened on the day after the day that the Governor of the Filipinas, Don Gdmez P^rez Dasmarinas, had his head murderously split open, and died of it, in th...e Molucca Islands; and that gentleman was killed in that bad manner on the 2 5th of Octo- ber in the year 1593. Therefore — since every- thing concerning this most extraordinary hap- pening is known with so great an accuracy — there can be no doubt whatever but that in every particular all that I now am telling you is strictly true.
Because it began in two different places at the same time, it is not easy to say certainly, Senor, which end of this story is the beginning of it; but the beginning of it is this: On a day, being the day that I have just named to you, the sentries on guard at the great doors of the Palace— and also the people who at that time happened to be walking near by on the Plaza Mayor — of a sudden saw an entirely strange sentry pacing his beat before the great doors of the Palace quite in the regular manner: [97] LEGENDS OF THE CITY OF MEXICO marching back and forth, with his gun on his shoulder; making his turns with a soldierly propriety; saluting correctly those entitled to salutes who passed him; and in every way con- ducting himself as though he duly had been posted there — but making his marchings and his turnings and his salutings with a wondering look on the face of him, and having the air of one who is all bedazzled and bemazed.
