What reading level is A Pilgrim Jew; a Romance book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The stuff that God makes manhood of is spun, Not from the robes of kings, nor regal crowns, But from the drapery of truth and light.
Fresh wove in heav'n ; — nor high, nor low, nor rich, Nor poor, nor Gentile, nor the Jew can claim Monopoly on wealth of character.
i6 A PILGRIM JEW ' VII As touching crimes that guilty Jews have wrought Some others' hands are crimson dyed with gore ; For sin is sin, in Gentile, Jew or bond, Or Scythian, or free, — the kind is one.
Who knows but Gentile would have... wrought the crime That Judas did, had Gentile felt the gyves That traitor thralled, as captive slave of hell ?
The scorpion of dire remorse did sting The writhing soul of that despairing man.
And this, I ween, would be his plaint, could tongue Give speech to mortal anguish and despair : — ** My soul has run the grim gauntlet of grief To find more woe, unsoothed by help or hope ; The deed I've done, none can undo, nor change The act that seals my double doom. Remorse A PILGRIM JEW 17 Thrusts me with hell-tipped spears of agony ; The lust for gold my spirit starved, and darkened Life's brief day with rayless gloom ; — the sky That over-domed me once with friendly glow Of sun, or moon, or stars, now covers me With deepening night no light shall ever break; When my lips kissed the face of Him, my Friend, Who went the length of love to rescue me.
