What reading level is The Unknown Eros book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ye outlaw'd Best, who yet are brightWith the sunken light, Whose common styleIs Virtue at her gracious ease, The flower of olden sanctities, Ye haply trust, by love's benignant guile, To lure the dark and selfish broodTo their own hated good;Ye haply dreamYour lives shall still their charmful sway sustain, Unstifled by the fever'd steamThat rises from the plain. Know, 'twas the force of function high, In corporate exercise, and public aweOf Nature's, Heaven's, and England's LawThat Best, though... mix'd with Bad, should reign, Which kept you in your sky!But, when the sordid Trader caughtThe loose-held sceptre from your hands distraught, And soon, to the Mechanic vain, Sold the proud toy for nought, Your charm was broke, your task was sped, Your beauty, with your honour, dead, And though you still are dreaming sweetOf being even now not lessThan Gods and Goddesses, ye shall not long so cheatYour hearts of their due heaviness. Go, get you for your evil watching shriven!Leave to your lawful Master's itching handsYour unking'd lands, But keep, at least, the dignityOf deigning not, for his smooth use, to be, Voteless, the voted delegatesOf his strange interests, loves and hates.
