What reading level is The Study of Man book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Probably an analogous singing pantomime is the following, which was given to me by a German girl. The children form a ring, and as they sing they make appropriate gestures.
"Would you know how the peasant. Would you know how the peasant, Sows his oats ?
* I. E. , p. 88.
THE SINGING GAMES OF CHILDREN 341 Look ! like this the peasant, Look ! hke this the peasant, Sows his oats in the field. " The double rhymes are repeated for — Reaping oats, Threshing oats. And winnowing oats.
At first sight thi
...s game appears to be similar to a common English rhyming game known as " Oats, Beans, and Barley"; but a further study of the latter rather leads one to the supposition that it had originally a magical significance.
I have seen the following game played by the children of Girton, a village near Cambridge, and I would like to take this opportunity of thanking Mrs. Lawrence, of the Rectory, for the help she has given me in collectino- the rames of that villaoe.
The girls who played it walked round in a circle, and they made appropriate gestures while singing the second verse in illustration of the words of the sone.
