What reading level is Obituary Addresses On the Occasion of the Death of the Hon Henry Clay a Senator book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
More than twenty years ago, I was introduced to him by my father, who was his personal friend. From that time to this, there has existed between us as great personal intimacy as the disparity in our years and our political difference would justify. After I became a member of this House, and upon his return to the Senate, subsequent to his resigna tion in 1842, the warm regard upon his part for the daughter of a devoted friend of forty years standing, made him a constant visitor at my house, and... fre quently a guest at my table. These circumstances make it proper, that upon this occasion, I should pay this last tribute to his memory. I not only knew him well as a statesman, but I knew him better in most unreserved social intercourse. The most happy circumstance, as I esteem it, of my political life has been, that I have thus known each of our great Con gressional triumvirate.
I, sir, never knew a man of higher qualities than Mr. CLAY. His very faults originated in high qualities. With as great self-possession, with greater self-reliance than any man I ever knew, he possessed moral and physical courage to as high a degree as any man who ever lived.
