What reading level is Miscellaneous Essays Reprinted From the English Originals With the Authors Co book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Next to sexual profligacy, gaming is par excellence the grand vice of Paris ; and it, like every other principle of evil, has made rapid and fearful progress since the Three Days. No attempts whatever are made to restrain it ; on the contrary, it is taken under the safeguard of the police, and a tax levied on its profits, as on those of prostitution, which constitutes a considerable part of the municipal revenue. The prodigious number of suicides which occur in Paris, amounting on an average to... above one a night, frequently to a great deal more, chiefly spring from the despair produced by the inordinate passion for this vice. Unlike what generally occurs in England, it exists equally among the poorest as the richest classes ; their hells are open for the sous of the labourer or the francs of the artisan, as well as the Napoleon of the officer or the rouleaux of the banker. They are to be met ■with in every street ; they spread their devas- tating influence through every workshop and manufactory in Paris.
