What reading level is A Beleaguered City book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At any momentit seemed to us the gates might open, or some loophole be visible bywhich we might throw ourselves upon the darkness and vanquish it. Thiswas what we said to ourselves, forgetting how we shook and trembledwhenever any contact had been possible with those who were within. Butone thing was certain, that though we feared, we could not turn our eyesfrom the place. We slept leaning against a tree, or with our heads onour hands, and our faces toward Semur. We took no count of day or nigh...t, but ate the morsel the women brought to us, and slept thus, notsleeping, when want or weariness overwhelmed us. There was scarcely anhour in the day that some of the women did not come to ask what news. They crept along the roads in twos and threes, and lingered for hourssitting by the way weeping, starting at every breath of wind.
Meanwhile all was not silent within Semur. The Cathedral bells rangoften, at first filling us with hope, for how familiar was that sound!The first time, we all gathered together and listened, and many wept.
