What reading level is Memorial of Ira Harris book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The dead leaves of the autumn are the nourishment of the germs of the on-coming spring. 'No material is dissolved but that it may reappear in more glorious aspect; no type ever is broken but that God may recast it in more heavenly moulds. Through death there has been a continual pro- gress in the aspects and tlie forms of creation. The huge, unwieldy types which of old ruled in the animal and vege- table world have been removed, and out of tlieir ashes has sprung the young phoenix of creation w...hich is the meet satellite of man. And why should we tremble at the pre- sence of death ? Wliy should we dread that the law which rules through the whole sphere of creation should stop here with man, and that death, which is only the trans- figuration of nature, will wreck and destroy the whole human world ? Why, but because man is a spirit and his spiritual relations are supreme, and they, if out of har- mony with God, will make discord and dread within all the boundaries of his sphere.
But the Christian is delivered from this ; he need as little fear death as the creature ; nay, as he sees the glory to which it can lead him, he can exult in the prospect and strain to meet it as a child toward the arms of its mother, or as the exile, returning, presses forward toward home.
