What reading level is A Letter to the Treasurer of the Hon Society of the Middle Temple On the Presen book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is to this defect in legal education, that I am, in a great measure, in- clined to attribute that chicanery, and those merely verbal distinctions, which at present disgrace our laws. Words are mistaken for things ; and reason is bound prisoner to form and precedent. That these must always be folio wed to a certain extent, no one is more sensible of than myself : it would be dangerous to do otherwise: but the English lawyer bows down before them with all the superstition of the Gentoo before ...his idol. It is only witliin the last few years, that it has been thought pos- sible that there could be even a fault in the English law. It resembles, in consequence, a field, in which the weeds have so choked up and out-grown the corn, that not a blade of it appears ; and we have grown so accustomed to the sight, that we begin at length to regard the spurious crop as the real. It does not, however, seem to me, whatever may be their private opinion, that the Benchers are at liberty to exercise their discretion as to the propriety of giving up educa- tion ; and certainly not, without first giving it some trial.
