What reading level is The Uttermost Star : And Other Gleams of Fancy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was Mary Godolphin's Sand- ford and Merton — a special edition prepared in words of one syllable. I have it still, and a record on 134 The Will-o'-the-Wisp 135 the fly-leaf shows that I read it first when I was in my sixth year. But I remember the tense excite- ment with which I followed the adventures of Hal Sandford on that night in which he was lost on the lonely moor. In front of him he saw a dim and fitful light which he took to be a lantern carried by some more fortunate traveller. The... light zigzags to and fro; and Hal concludes that his fellow traveller is drunk. But, drunk or sober, he longs to reach him and enjoy some kind of human compan- ionship. He presses on until he finds himself becom- ing entangled in the marshes, and at last falls head- long into a slimy pit.
'But, Hal,' says Tom Merton, as he listens to the story afterwards, 'did you find out what that light was that you saw in the marsh ?' 'Yes,' said Hal; 'it was the Will-o'-the-Wisp!' Thus, as old John Gay sings, Will-o'-the-Wisp misleads nightfaring clowns O'er hills and sinking bogs.
