What reading level is A Funeral Discourse book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I have not been arguing — I have only endeavoured to state briefly the spiritual view^ of man.
There is high authority for this representation; but I have re- ferred to only one consideration in its favour, its elevating and cheering character. It is good for us to look upon man in this light at all times. The meanest and the lov^^est become sacred in our eyes when every man is regarded as a glorious spirit, possessing godlike faculties, and an undying being. But most soothing and inspiring is ...this view of our nature in the hour of affliction, when tender ties have been broken, and those have vanished from our circles, who were to us as parts of ourselves.
We need the comfort of such view on such occasions ; whether it is the young that depart or the old. We need to have deeply impressed upon us a conviction of our spiritual and immortal nature, that when our friends vanish, as they are vanishing, we may not feel that they were nothing but shadows, and that we gave our hearts to mere phantoms.
