What reading level is Byron book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
'You need not assume that look. ' 'That is my expression, 'said Byron. 'Indeed, ' said I; and I then represented him as I wished. Whenthe bust was finished he said, 'It is not at all like me; my expression ismore unhappy. '" West, the American, who five years later painted hislordship at Leghorn, substantiates the above half-satirical anecdote, bythe remark, "He was a bad sitter; he assumed a countenance that did notbelong to him, as though he were thinking of a frontispiece for _ChldeHarold_. ..." Thorwaldsen's bust, the first cast of which was sent toHobhouse, and pronounced by Mrs. Leigh to be the best of the numerouslikenesses of her brother, was often repeated. Professor Brandes, ofCopenhagen, introduces his striking sketch of the poet by a reference tothe model, that has its natural place in the museum named from the greatsculptor whose genius had flung into the clay the features of a characterso unlike his own. The bust, says the Danish critic, at first sightimpresses one with an undefinable classic grace; on closer examination therestlessness of a life is reflected in a brow over which clouds seem tohover, but clouds from which we look for lightnings.
