What reading level is A Provence Rose book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" You cannot buy honor by fraud. " Rene lifted his head and looked straight in the eyes of the man who held the scales of his fate, and could weigh out for his whole life's portion either fame and fortune, or obscurity and famine.
" Sir, " he said slowly, with a bitter, tranquil smile about his mouth, " my garret is empty, but it is clean. May I trouble you to leave it as you found it? " So they were strong to the end, these two famished children of frivolous Paris.
But when the door had closed... and shut their tempter out, the revulsion came : they wept A PROVENCE ROSE. 67 those tears of blood which come from the hearts' depths of those who have seen Hope mock them with a smile a moment, to leave them face to face with Death.
" Poor fools ! " sighed the old vine from his corner in the gray, dull twilight of the late autumn day.
Was the vine right?
The air which he had breathed for fifty years through all his dust-choked leaves and tendrils had been the air off millions of human lungs, corrupted in its passage through millions of human lips ; and the thoughts which he thought were those of human wisdom.
