What reading level is Chronicles of England France Spain And the Adjoining Countries volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These States are composed of the body of the Senate and of several gentlemen. The senators are the palatines and the bishops ; the gentlemen, the deputies of the particular diets in each palatinate. In these great assemblies presides the Archbishop of Gnesen, primate of Poland, vicar of the kingdom during an interregnum, and, next to the King, the first person in the State. Beside him there is seldom any other cardinal in Poland; because, the Roman purple giving no precedence in the Senate, a b...ishop who should be made a cardinal would be obliged either to take his rank as senator or to renounce the substantial rights of the dignity he enjoys in his own country to support the vain preten- sions of a foreign honor.
These diets, by the laws of the kingdom, must be held alter- nately in Poland and Lithuania. The deputies frequently transact their business sabre in hand, like the ancient Sarma- tians, from whom they are sprung ; and sometimes, too, intoxi- cated with liquor, a vice to which the Sarmatians were utter strangers.
