What reading level is The X Jewel a Scottish Romance of the Days of James Vi book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This girl had hit upon the soft place about me, and for some time after she had gone I could scarce recover my balance. I could see now how miserable and cheerless her life was rendered by those who professed to protect her ; and, although she was styled an heiress, I knew too well that her property would be practically confiscated by the man whom they forced her to marry.
I could see also with some clearness the truth about her father's disappearance. He had been hurried, along with his horse,... probably under cloud of night, across the water at the Queens- ferry, and before the sun rose again he was with- in the walls of Fastcastle. The place had an evil name, but only those who had an intimate ac- quaintance with it knew the story of its secret dungeons. There was, however, a cavern on the sea-level immediately below the keep, and it was generally believed that there were various cham- 161 bers in the rock which supplied a communication between the cavern and the castle. It Avas pos- sible that the song I heard came from one of those chambers, and if so the impression made on me of a voice coming from a distance was explained.
