What reading level is Mary Queen of Scots book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
ALEXANDER SCOTT: ‘A New Year Gift to the Queen Mary, when she first came home’, 1562 Exactly how different her new kingdom was from her old one, the young queen was speedily to discover on her very first Sabbath in Scotland. Up till that morning there had been, in Knox’s phrase, nothing but ‘mirth and quietness’, but on the Sunday Mary, who had been assured by Lord James of the private practice of her religion, ordered Mass to be said in the chapel royal at Holyrood.* The preparations for the se...rvice were all too familiar to a country which had only been officially Protestant for one year. The onlookers exclaimed furiously: ‘Shall the idol be suffered again to take place within this realm?’ and speedily resolved: ‘It shall not!’ Patrick Lindsay, the future Lord Lindsay of the Byres, went so far as to shout out in the courtyard that the idolatrous priest should be put to death. The servant carrying the altar candles was put into a state of terror when his candles were seized by one of the crowd, and together with some of the altar ornaments, either broken or trodden into the mud.
