What reading level is Civitas: the Romance of Our Nation's Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He who goes moping fertile fields around, Of virtue prates when he should till the ground ; Or rails at vice when he should watch the fold ; Or praises God when he should dig for gold ; Or goes to church when he should run his mill ; Or preaches temperance by an idle still, May grow in grace, his fat'ning soul expand, Be known for virtue throughout all the land ; But useless still, impractical and vain.
His life for loss must count and not for gain.
lUl not have here an idler's paradise, Where ...useless drones from labor steal its price ; But freedom give to those who earnest strive By their own thrift to make the country thrive ; And they shall eat in plenty who food earn, And they shall starve, mid plenty, who work spurn.
Nor in all this can harm be done to thee, Unless abundance wars with liberty.
The rich can scarcely pass the pearly gates.
But no such gospel bars the growth of states.
Is liberty a boon ? Then, if so, why ?
To teach poor mortals how in hope to die ?
Or how by faith immortal life is won ?
