What reading level is In David's Town book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such was Paganism in its Golden Age.
The incident at Bethlehem, however, was a mere preliminary skirmish. The murder of a score of children was an episode of slight conse- quence in the royal policies of those days. And it failed to accomplish its purpose ; for " Joseph THE CHILD AND THE EMPEROR 67 arose and took the young child and his mother by night and fled into Egypt." The affair was shrewdly planned ; but Herod reckoned without God. The futility of the bloody deed is set forth in two mast...erpieces of recent art. One of them is Holman Hunt's " Triumph of the Innocents," in which Joseph and the virgin mother and her Child are repre- sented on their way to Egypt followed by the spirits of the slain innocents ; one of them carry- ing a golden censer while the others come troop- ing after with palm branches. These are the vanguard of that noble army of martyrs who ever since have followed in his train. The other picture is " The Repose in Egypt " by Merson.
It represents the dull-eyed, wondering Sphinx on the verge of the desert, between the world with- out hope and the world of progress.
