What reading level is Miscellanies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
more acceptable service than any futile attempt at definition of the indefinable is rendered by any one who gives us but one grain or one drop more from the siftings of his granary or the runnings of his well : provided that these have in them the pure and genuine flavour of the special soil. A very few relics — two or three at most — have been preserved, and even foisted into certain recent editions, with which his truest lovers would be the readiest to 'dispense. But these are not among the s...pontaneous effusions of his natural mind : they are avowedly and obviously the forced pro- ducts of unenjoying labour or of merriment for once un- inspired. Cancel these, with a few imitative sentimen- talities of his earliest versifying days, and there will remain^f him nothing that may not be treasured and enjoyed for ever. But if there be one part of his work more delightful than another— more delightful (if that be possible) than the very Essays of Elia — it is to be found by readers who are fit to relish it in those fugi- tive notes and marginal observations which have all the i6o CHARLES LAMB AND GEORGE WLTHER bright fine freedom of his most fanciful letters, and all the clear swift insight of his subtlest criticisms.
