What reading level is Witness of the Psalms to Christ And Christianity Eight Lectures Preached Befor book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Other poetry, when it is translated into literal prose, loses its essence as poetry. Its form is gone. Its life is measure and cadence, and these have evaporated. But in Hebrew poetry it is otherwise. A verse translation may, indeed, throw a gleam of beautiful light upon a single clause, or form an exquisite commen- tary upon a single passage. But, taken as a whole, a Psalm is destroyed by being turned into verse — even when Milton or Keble attempts the task — as much as Homer, Virgil, or Dante... is destroyed by being turned into uprose. And this seems to be one of the many threads of the great contexture of coincidences which the Wisdom of God has woven into the woof of the Psalter. He who inspired the Prophecies of Christ and of His Church in the Book of Psalms — Who provided that Church, with a Manual of wor- ship — provided also that it should be conveyed in the only form of poetry suitable to make it universal. Therefore, the Psalms can pass from tongue to tongue without de- struction of their essential character.
