What reading level is Quaint London Describing a Number of Interesting Relics of Old London book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Hall itself not visible in our picture, which gives the inner courtyard is interesting as still showing the arrangement by which the smoke of a fire kindled on a hearth in the centre of the room was allowed to escape through an opening in the roof.
To those who know Barnard's Inn, and its old-world air, it will seem quite natural that the "last of the alchemists" pursued here his search for the Elixir of Life. This was Peter Woulfe, F. R. S. , who died in 1805. His chambers were encumbered ...with furnaces and apparatus, and the walls covered with prayers to Providence for the success of his processes. To ensure a long day, he used to breakfast at four in the morning ; and to guard against intrusion and the possible theft of the Great Secret friends were admitted only on giving a pre-arranged signal.
But Barnard's Inn is chiefly remarkable as the scene of many chapters in Dickens's "Great Expectations, " for here Pip had at one time his quarters. The great novelist was perhaps hardly fair to the Inn, of which he once speaks as " the dingiest collection of shabby buildings ever squeezed together in a rank corner as a club for tom-cats.
