What reading level is Cross Country book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" ' Priends, ' he said, ' God has smitten me. I am guilty : 240 'cross country.
tlie brand of Cain is here. Hear me ere I go to death, I was not always thus. In my youth I was fair, till disease and vice distorted these features. I loved Lucy Owen, I served her like a hound does its mistress — I ran, I swam, I did all for her : but a handsome stripling came, and I was slighted. The ■wedding day w^as fixed. It was in the inn-kitchen that I first heard the news. I rushed forth, and roamed about t...ill mid- night, half maddened at tidings which had blighted me, as frost does the early flower. It was a summer night, I crept to the Owens' cottage. Lucy's broad casement was open, though her room was dark. A devil's thought came into my mind, and drove back all recollection of heaven. I clambered silently up the vine, entered the room which was half lit by moonlight, half in shade, lay a moment silent, watched the sleeping spirit ; then, like a fiend of hell, stifling her mouth, I sufibcated her with the pillow.
