What reading level is An Essay On Man book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Weak, foolish man I will Heav'n reward us there With the same trash mad mortals wish for here ?
The boy and man an individual makes, 175 Yet sigh'st thou now for apples and for cakes ?
Go, like the Indian, in another life, Expect thy dog, thy bottle, and thy wife ; As well as dream such trifles are assign'd, As toys and empires for a godlike mind. 180 Rewards, that either would to virtue bring No joy, or be destructive of the thing ; How oft by these at sixty are undone The virtues of a saint a...t twenty-one.
V 4fi ESSAY ON MAN.
\ y To whom can riches give repute, or trust, 185 Content or pleasure, but the good and just ?
Judges and senates have been bought for gold; Esteem and love were never to be sold.
O fool ! to think God hates the worthy mind, The lover and the love of human kind, 190 Whose life is healthful, and whose conscience clear.
Because he wants a thousand pounds a year.
Honour and shame from no condition rise ; Act well your part, there all the hojiour lies.
Fortune in men has some small diff'reuce made, 195 One flaunt in rags, one flutters in brocade ; The cobbler apron'd, and the parson gown'd, The friar hooded, and the monarch crown'd.
