What reading level is Some of Aesops Fables With Modern Instances Shewn in Designs By Randolph Cald book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

THE MAN AND HIS Two WIVES . 61 XVII. THE Fox WITHOUT A TAIL . . 65 XVIII. THE EAGLE AND THE Fox . . 69 XIX. THE Ox AND THE FROG . 73 XX. THE HAWK CHASING A DOVE . 77 NOTE.
SIXTEEN of these Twenty Fables have been handed down to us in a Greek form : for these Halm's text has been used. As to the other four Number IX. Is from Phaedrus, and retains a flavour of artificiality ; Numbers XIII. And XX. Are from Latin versions; and Number X. Is from a French one.
The Translations aim at replacing the f
...lorid style of our older English versions, and the stilted harshness of more modern ones, by a plainness and terseness more nearly like the character of the originals.
In the following cases the Designs are at variance with the proper text. In Number I. The design puts cheese for meat; in Number VIII. A pack of Hounds for a Lion; in Number XI. A Stork for a Crane; and in Number XIX. A Frog for a Toad. The reason of this is, that in the collaboration the Designer and Translator have not been on terms of equal authority ; the former has stood unshakeably by English tradition, and has had his own way.
