What reading level is Lectures On the History of the French Revolution 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
ment the most just, pronounced oncrimeB the most clear, became itself an injustice and a crime, unless ordered by the law, and the judge, the proper organ of the law." Once more, and to close for a time the subject.
The scenes I hi^ve alluded to are highly disgraceful to the Assembly, and all the constituted authorities of Paris. They show, no doubt, the necessity of some executive power. This is the first lesson ; but more is to be considered. The two unhappy men who were massacred were litera...lly torn in pieces by the multitude. Their heads were carried on pikes, and led in a sort of triumphal procession through the streets. A fiend in the shape of a man, as I have already mentioned, actually thrust liis hand into the entrails of one of these unfortunate victims, tore out the heart, and brought it to the council table, where the committee was sitting in the town hall. These are the great facts to be remembered.
!NFow horrors of this kind, and they are innumerable through the French Eevolution, show, as I have mentioned, in the first place, the necessity of some executive government ; but in the second place, they have been always considered as the most de- cisive proo& that can possibly be produced to show the necessity, after all, of the Eevolution itself, and the badness of the old French government.
