What reading level is Essays On the Chinese Language book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Thus it is said to denote "straight" or " straightness " (jg), and "great" or "greatness" (^). Examples of the word in these uses are, however, rare, if they are actually to be found in speech or literature. It is also vaguely said to be " all fine (or subtle) things " (^ ^j? -g" J| ^), and to be a general name for all passive and active states (JE ^ ^ ffl ^ 1^ ^)> ^"^^^ ^^' i^oi'8'l states. These are sufficiently wide to cover nearly everything. There are probably, however, many varieties of m...eaning, special, technical, or otherwise restricted in use which are included in the account given in these pages, and there are perhaps others of ordinary occurrence which h^ve escaped observation.* The account of the word tao up to this has been mainly confined to its use by the people generally and in the writings of the orthodox. But in order to understand it properly we should also take notice of the special ways in which the term is employed by the various sects. M. Julien says of it, "Les lettr^s, les bouddhistes et les Tao-sse font un grand usage de ce mot, et I'emploient chacun dans un sens different," and he proceeds to illustrate the statement.
