What reading level is The Black Rood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He massed his army on the wide plain outside the city walls and then proceeded to lead his victorious troops and their wretched captives into the city. The wily amir spared no pomp in making his entrance as impressive as possible. Drummers went before the amir and his bodyguard, pounding out dull thunder; children ran beside the amir’s horse, scattering flower petals; trumpeters blew shrill blasts to part the crowds who stood and gaped at the passing spectacle.
We marched through the streets to ...the citadel where Atabeg Buri and all the officials and dignitaries met the grand cavalcade in the courtyard of the Rose Pavillion. Proud Ghazi made a great show of displaying his prize captives; the prisoners were paraded before a double rank of noble Arabs, some on small cushioned stools and some on thrones, and made to bow before them in a show of subservient humiliation. I, who had carried Bohemond’s head on my back, was forced to display the ghastly prize to the Arabs.
Summoned from the fore-ranks of the captives, I was marched before the Seljuqs and Saracens as they sat in festal splendor, enjoying the subjugation of their hated foe.
