What reading level is The Speech for Cluentius; book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Again in giving evidence on a sub- sequent occasion at a trial for corruption, Lentulus delivers a very warm eulogy of Popilius. Accordingly if Lentulus did not abide by the decision of Gellius, while Gellius on his part did not acquiesce in the judgment of Lentulus — if neither of the two censors saw any necessity for abiding by the opinion of his colleague — is there any reason why any of us should think that their official stigma ought in all cases to be immutable and valid for all time ?
XL...Vin. 133. But you will tell me they censured Habitus himself.
Yes, but not for anything discreditable, nor for any blunder — not to say blemish — in his whole life ; for in- deed no man could possibly be more blameless or more upright than the defendant, nor more conscientious in the observance of every obligation. This the censors do not gainsay. They too were influenced by the rumour of bribery at the trial. Their own personal opinion of my client's honour, uprightness, and goodness is all that we could wish ; but they thought it was impossible for them to overlook the prosecutor after having censured the jury.
