What reading level is Belshazzar Court Or Village Life in New York City book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Problem, and the like ; although, if I had the time to pursue my re- searches, I might find a parallel to many of these things. What I have in mind is a great demo- cratic rite, a ceremonial which is solemnized on 76 BELSHAZZAR COURT six days in the week during six months in the year by large masses of men with such unfailing regularity and such unquestioning good faith that I cannot help tliinking of it as essentially a re- ligious performance.
It is a simple ceremonial, but impressive, like a...ll manifestations of the soul of a multitude. I need only close my eyes to call up the picture vividly : It is a day of brilliant sunshine and a great crowd of men is seated in the open air, a crowd made up of all conditions, ages, races, tem- peraments, and states of mind. The crowd has sat there an hour or more, while the afternoon sun has slanted deeper into the west and the shadows have crept across greensward and hard- baked clsij to the eastern horizon. Then, almost with a single motion, — the time may be some- where between four-thirty and five o'clock, — this multitude of divers minds and tempers rises to its feet and stands silent, while one might count twenty perhaps.
