What reading level is Lines Suggested On the Banks of a Rocky Stream book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Morris saw no reason for bringing her home at these intervals, and her own reminiscences of Liverpool, were not such as to make the exile a very severe trial. Nor did her time pass unhappily — Miss Parkinson had in- deed a spice of the dragon in her nature, and the rigid propriety of the house was sadly at variance with Helen's vivacity and love of freedom. She un- derwent, too, the usual amount of misery in the acquirement of the various accomplishments which she was doomed to learn. But these... were minor trials, and left no trace on her elastic nature ; and when, at the age of seventeen, she was pronounced "finished," and orders came for her transmission back to Liverpool, she certainly did not leave Mi- nerva House without tears.
Helen had, of course, a bosom friend among her school-fellows, with whom she had long ago ex- changed vows of eternal attachment, which had now to be confirmed by solemn promises of frequent correspondence. Laura Mowbray had entered the school at the same time with Helen — and on the very first day of their noviciate, when as yet neither of them had found a friend among the strange faces around them, Helen, under the im- 22^1 pulse of her impetuously affectionate heart, made an offer of her childish affection to the gentle retiring little girl, whom, stranger and friendless like herself, she found sitting alone weeping for the home she had left.
