What reading level is Cosmos book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


IX Aye! vain the vaunt of Heroes; vain The deeds that once were thought sublime; And vain your Monarchs, briefly staged In tinselled royal pantomime; Their House was builded on the sands And they unworth a random rhyme.
X Vain are the works of man; most vain His bubbled Glory, Aye! or Fame; More fragile than a last-year's leaf Unnoticed of the sunset's flame; And naught endures unless it stands Linked with a deathless Poet's name.
12 FIVE I How flourished then the lesser arts As man to manhood
...slowly grew?
With blackened ^ick from ruddy fires That on his cave refledtions threw, He scrawled the rock which sheltered him And thus the fir^ rude pidure drew.
II And catching hints from Nature's lore He squeezed his colors from the clay; Steeped leaf and bark, and dyed the skins That round about his dwelling lay; And, urged by vanity, his cheeks Were daubed with dash of pigments gay.
Ill So, ever as the seasons died His mind expanded with his will; He saw the dry leaves touched with gold And grass grow tawny on the hill; Found etchings on the ruffled breams And marked the sunset's hedic thrill.
