What reading level is Wanderings in South America book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There, stunned by the fall, it beats the deck with its tail and dies. Wheneating it you would take it for a fresh herring. The largest measure fromfourteen to fifteen inches in length. The dolphin, after pursuing it to theship, sometimes forfeits his own life.
In days of yore the musician used to play in softest, sweetest strain, andthen take an airing amongst the dolphins: "inter delphinas Arion. " Butnowadays our tars have quite capsized the custom, and instead of ridingashore on the dolphin,... they invite the dolphin aboard. While he is dartingand playing around the vessel a sailor goes out to the spritsail yard-arm, and with a long staff, leaded at one end, and armed at the other with fivebarbed spikes, he heaves it at him. If successful in his aim there is afresh mess for all hands. The dying dolphin affords a superb and brilliantsight: Mille trahit moriens, adverse sole colores.
All the colours of the rainbow pass and repass in rapid succession over hisbody, till the dark hand of death closes the scene.
