What reading level is Pygmalion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He sank adown From greatness he had never reached, because ^ That jealous Titan blocked his proper path, O gold and purple that he might have won !
O brazen chariot, and O sweetest wines !
O maiden with the wealth he might have wed !
And now what does he do ? Makes little gods For dwelling-houses where the pay is small.
So I, instead of wearing linen fine, Bordered with flowers in hue and threads of gold; And having slaves to watch my every wish.
Must spin and drudge ; or b^ and steal and drudg...e.
Thus midden-heated, hatched the festering lies That bred in multiplying swarms, and wove A cloud of hatred round Pygmalion's name.
138 PYGMALION. [BOOK DC Some fat and fiill-Uown, dashed with strains of truth, Catching to careless glance, and shallowness.
Some crawled the dust intent ; by wr^ling hard Fixed themselves tight in unexpecting ears.
Others winged-bom, and swift, in hovering buzz Sought places from the rubs of life worn bare To strike their pitiless and poisonous stings.
Pygmalion, who unwitting this dark web, Fine- meshed, far-reaching, was around him wrought, B^[an to wonder friends he loved right well Seemed shy or cold, or made abrupt replies To common questionings of daily life.
