What reading level is The Hindoos As They Are : a Description of the Manners, Customs, And Inner Life of Hindoo Society in Bengal book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" It is on such occasions," as Macaulay observes, " that tender and delicate women, whose veils had never been lifted before the public gaze, came forth from the inner chambers in which Eastern jealousy keeps watch over their beauty.'' The great body of Barjattars — bridegroom's friends — who graced the procession with their presence the previous night, do not ac- company it now on its return homewards, and notwithstand- ing all the vigilance of the extra guards, the mob scrambles and forcibly ...takes away the tinsel flower and fruit trees on the way. In an hour or two, all the objects of wonder vanish from the sight, and leave no mark behind them : " the gaze of fools, the pageant of a day," On the arrival of the procession at its destination, the bridegroom alights from the Sookasun and the bride from the Mohdpdyd, under which, by way of welcome, is thrown a gkara, or pot of water. Hereupon the silk chadur or scarf of the bridegroom, so long in the possession of the bride, being entwined between both while the conch is blowing, they are taken into the inner apartment, the former walking, the latter in the arms of one of her nearest female relatives whose husband is alive.
