What reading level is An Oration Pronounced At Boston Before the Colonization Society of Massachusetts book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

For it is time the fact should be clearly understood, in the free States, and loudly pro- claimed, that Anti- Slavery is not Anti- Colonization ; the sup- posed necessary identity between opposition to slavery and oppo- sition to African colonization is a radical error, whic-h chiefly, as I have reason to believe, has misled conscientious individuals to withhold their countenance from the Colonization Society. Let me inquire then, for a moment, what we can do, and what we ought to do, in respec...t of the great question of slavery, as existing in the United States.
All, who have read the Constitution of the United States, know full well, that by the very fundamental conditions of the Union, Massachusetts and Virginia stand, relatively to the question of the slave-system, in the position of foreign States. We have pre- cisely the same means of direct influence over that system in Virginia or South Carolina, as in Cuba, in Jamaica, in Brazil. It is not therefore, by legislation, that we in Massachusetts can effect the emancipation of the slaves in the Southern States, any 14 more than by po-jitive legh^lation, wc can relieve Ireland from sub- jection to Eiiglnntl, or restore the independence of the Poles.
