What reading level is Miscellanies volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Whilst I weighed all that could suggest itself on this head, without strictly examining the merit of the several schemes which were advanced by the captain and sailors, and, indeed, giving no very deep attention even to my wife, who, as well as her friend and my daughter, were exerting their tender concern for my ease and safety, Fortune, for I am convinced she had a hand in it, sent me a present of a buck ; a present welcome enough of itself, but more welcome on account of the vessel in which ...it came, being a large hoy, which in some places would pass for a ship, and many people would go some miles to see the sight. I was pretty easily conveyed on board this hoy ; but to get from hence to the shore was not so easy a task ; for, however strange it may appear, the water itself did not extend so far ; an instance which seems to explain those lines of Ovid, Omnia pwntus erant, deerant quoque littora ponto, in a less tautological sense than hath generally been imputed to them.
In fact, between the sea and the shore there was, at low water, an impassable gulph, if I may so call it, of deep mud, which could neither be traversed by walking 202 A VOYAGE TO LISBON.
