What reading level is Men, Women & Manners in Colonial Times 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
164 Puritans and Philosophy tempt of the ministers to regain their waning | power, which is known as the Salem Witchcraft.
The Puritans were extremely superstitious, and still held to the old mediaeval belief in devils and evil spirits. As their religion taught them to see in human nature only depravity and corruption, so in the outward nature by which they were surrounded they saw forewarnings and signs of doom and dread. Where the modern mind now refreshes itself in New England with the beaut...ies of the sea-shore, the forest, and the sunset, the Puritan saw only threatenings of terror. The Greek gave every streapi and mountain its graceful god or nymph who took a kindly interest in mankind, but the Puritan's imagination peopled every aspeft of nature with his deadly enemy the devil.
Such people were in a state of mind to receive any strange delusion, and one of the worst delu- sions of those days was a belief in witchcraft, which at that time had begun to be doubted; but there was still enough of it in the air to infedl the Puritans.
