What reading level is A Collection of Short-Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was a party of men-at- 20 arms going the night round with torches. Denis assured himself that they had all been making free with the wine bowl, and were in no mood to be particular about safe-con- ducts or the niceties of chivalrous war. It was as like as not that they would kill him Hke a dog and leave him 25 where he fell. The situation was inspiriting but nervous.
Their own torches would conceal him from sight, he re- flected ; and he hoped that they would drown the noise of his footsteps... with their own empty voices. If he were but fleet and silent, he might evade their notice altogether.
30 Unfortunately, as he turned to beat a retreat, his foot THE SIRE DE MALETROIT'S DOOR 209 rolled upon a pebble ; he fell against the wall with an ejac- ulation, and his sword rang loudly on the stones. Two or three voices demanded who went there — some in French, some in English ; but Denis made no reply, and ran the faster down the lane. Once upon the terrace, he paused to 5 look back. They still kept calHng after him, and just then began to double the pace in pursuit, with a considerable clank of armor, and great tossing of the torchlight to and fro in the narrow jaws of the passage.
