What reading level is The Elements of Morality, Including Polity book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
81 CHAPTER X.
NATURAL PIETY.
668. The belief in God, which most men poi- 1688, as a part of their mental habits, from the first dawn of thought ; which is unfolded into a distinct form in the course of their moral and intellectual culture ; and which is supported and confirmed by many reasonings, drawn both from the material and che moral world, brings with it corresponding Duties of the affections. We have already said (283) that man has, among his natural affections, a deference «>r something... better, wiser, more stable, more per- manent than himself. This feeling finds its employ- ment in our regards towards human Authority, especially when this Authority is manifestly com- bined with Goodness and Justice ; and makes Reverence and Obedience to such Authority to be Duties. But in order that our view of Duty may be confflstent with itself, these Affections of Rever- ence and Justice must be conceived as equally due, wherever these conditions of Authority, combined with Goodness and Justice, are conceived to exist ; and as due in a greater and greater degree, in pro- portion as the Authority, the Goodness, and the Justice, are more complete.
