What reading level is Letters to X From H J Massingham book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Gabriel Harvey and Chapman wrote parodies of the prevailing conventions. Davies fulminated against " base rhymers who daily beget bastard sonnets to their own shames and poetry's disgrace " ; Watson's " Pas- sionate Centurie of Love " brazenly acknowledges its subservience to foreign models ; Drayton admitted his own borrowings, and had the audacity to deiide his contemporaries for filching " from Desportes' and from Petrarch's pen, " and the best of them coolly pocketed one another's and the r...ing-master's material, without a pretence of the grace of confession. Sir Sidney is con- cerned with disputing the autobiographical elements in LITERARY TRADITION 151 Shakespeare's sonnets, but his contention is much more apposite to Drummond. The general verdict on him is almost agreed upon affirming it. At least one-third (as modern editions testify) of Drummond's output is a direct adaptation or translation of Petrarch, Tasso, Marino (whose " Sospetto d' Herode " was translated by Crashaw), Guarini, Sannazaro, the Pleiade, Boscan, Garcilasco, the " Arcadia " and the " Astrophel and Stella " sonnet sequence.
