What reading level is The Sweet Songsters of Great Britain With Useful Hints for the Rearing And Mana book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It has been known to whistle a tune very correctly, and also to crow like a cock. Mr. Barton Bouchier of Wold rectory, Northampton, relates an instance of this accomplishment possessed by a wild bird. He had heard the crow, and conjectured that it must have been uttered by a cock pheasant ; but at length, he says, i I had the gratification of getting close to the bird seated on the top bough of an ash tree. The resemblance to the crow of the domestic cock is so perfect, that more than one in th...e distance were answering to it, and the little fellow seemed to take delight in competing with its rivals of the dunghill. It occasionally indulged its usual song, but only for a second or two, and broke off in the middle into its more natural whistle. ' We have said that old writers called this bird the Merle. They had also another name for it, the Woofil or Woosel, probably Ouzel ; both of these names occur in some lines in Douglas's i Polyolbion : ' The Woofil near at hand, that hath a golden bill, As Nature him had markt of purpose to let us see That from all other birds his tune should different be ; For with their vocal sounds they sing to pleasant May ; Upon his dulcet pipe the Merle doth only play.
