What reading level is Mary St John book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' 'A true picture of a faithful life, little moralist !' returned her brother ; ' an old veteran decayed and worn out, but DOWN AT THE RECTORY 291 watching still. If this sun-dial could speak, what strange stories it would tell us of some of those old Talbots ! Perhaps some cavalier in Charles's time may have wooed his lady-love just here ; or in that arbour yonder some fair creature in hoop and brocade and powdered hair may have listened condescendingly to her beau in plum -coloured velvet and... ruffles, with a Topaz and Sapphire of an earlier generation strutting and flaunting beside them ! ' ' Yes, one could make up all sorts of romances, ' observed Mary gravely, for she was not thinking of love stories ; other thoughts had come into her head. Would she pace up and down here on summer evenings when she was an old woman, she wondered, a contented tranquil old woman, counting her peaches and gathering rose leaves for her pot- pourri ? Perhaps Lettice and Hatty and their lovers would come and whisper by the sun-dial, and she would look at them smilingly ; or rather Lettice's and Hatty's children, for she would not be so very old then ; and when they had gone, she and the old sun-dial would be alone together !
