What reading level is King Arthur in Cornwall book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Gorlois deposited Igerna in Tintagel, 'upon the sea shcfre, which he looked upon as a place of great safety. But he himself entered the castle of Damelioc to prevent their both being involved in the same danger if any should happen.' Damelioc is de- scribed as a strong ' castle,' having many issues out. According to the legend, Gorlois hoped here to receive succour from Ireland.
In this place Gorlois was besieged by the superior forces of Uther, and was slain fight- ing outside its ramparts. Ig...erna was apparently secure in Tintagel. ' For it is situated upon the sea and on every side surrounded by it ; and there is but one entrance into it, and that through a straight rock, which three men shall be able to defend against the whole power of the kingdom.' But though Tintagel was im- pregnable, the lady was not. Uther obtained admittance into the castle while Gorlois was in Damelioc, and Arthur was the result.
According to tradition, Uther was trans- formed into the likeness of Gorlois by the arts of Merlin, and the King of Britain admitted under a misunderstanding to the IN CORNWALL 51 domestic privileges of the King of Cornwall.
