What reading level is The Folly book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
** Jeremy was just coming out of the church after speaking to Father Doyle, when one of the village boys came running up to him. The boy was no older than seven and looked up at him with big, frightened eyes. “Tis for you, sir,” he blurted out, pushing a note into Jeremy’s hand and taking off like a frightened rabbit. Jeremy looked at the piece of paper. Who around here would send him a note? He stuffed the note into his pocket to read later, his mind still on his conversation with Father D...oyle. The vicar listened to him carefully, shaking his head in dismay.
“Mr. Sutton, I’m sorry for your loss, but I cannot allow a funeral. No unbaptized child can be buried in consecrated ground. Dr. Lawrence should have told you as much. There is even a midwife’s oath in the Book of Oaths that deals with the subject. It states the following: “If any child be dead born, you yourself shall see it buried in such secret place as neither Hog nor Dog, nor any other Beast may come unto it, and in such sort done, as it may not be found or perceived, as much as you may; and that you shall not suffer any such child to be cast into the privy or any other inconvenient place.”
