What reading level is The Old Man Or Ramblings Round Conistone book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Undercrag has little about it to attract notice before many of its neighbours ; 66 "a peaceful eetibemenx. " its only claim to our attention is its being tbe birth-place of one, whose homely name has become known wider and farther than has that of auy other native of the lake coun- try, always excepting the name of his great biographer.
Leave Undercrag, and on regaining the highroad, in- stead of crossing the bridge to your left, and so returning upon yonr track, hold straight forward, and you ...soon enter a little circular basin of green fields, besprinkled with ancient cottages and farms, intersected with stone walls, and enlivened by two or three sparkling brooklets which meet in its centre. It reminds you of De Quincey's description of Easedale — " a chamber within a chamber, or rather a closet within a chamber — a chapel within a cathedral — a little private oratory within a chapel. " The houses in this little den are all within the sweep of the eye, and are easily enumerated ; Hollin house, Tongue- house, Beck-house, Long-house, The Thrang, and— what next ?
