What reading level is The Orient Pearls, Indian Folk-Lore book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thus driven from piUar to post, the goat soon found himself back in the mazes of the dreaded forest, but this time his wits failed him in the hour of danger, and his plump body was soon shared between wolves and jackals.
THE ELEPHANT-WRESTLER.
Once upon a time there lived a poor old widow with a grown-up son, who, though not a giant, was yet endowed with a giant's strength. Their only means of livelihood was the making and selUng of pots of clay. These they used to leave in front of their hut, ...to be sun-dried previous to being baked in a kiln.
It so happened, one day, that the King of the land, who was going out to hunt on an elephant, passed by their hut, and the elephant crushed under its heavy feet the pots which were lying about in the sun. The widow's son, seeing this, rushed up from behind and caught hold of the tail of the elephant, which suddenly stopped and, in spite of the goading of the driver, could not be made to move at all. Mad with pain, it began to bellow and whirl its trunk about, almost shaking the Prince off its back.
