What reading level is Oxford book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Mary's booms a minute-bell. Shops are half-closed andflags half-masted. Then through the silent streets winds a black-robedprocession, half a mile in length, and one of Oxford's best-known sonsis carried to his rest. Or, maybe, all is bright with pleasure-seekingcrowds and ladies decked in all their bravery, and just a glimpse iscaught of scarlet and of black, with gleam of silver mace, as theVice-Chancellor's procession goes to give degrees. Or, just once more, aline of Oxford cabs--who does n...ot know the Oxford cab?--each withunlicensed number of undergraduate fares, goes to the sound of rattleand of song to speed the departure from his Alma Mater's arms of one whohas outstepped the limits of her patience.
So it goes on: a varying scene of dignity and ribaldry, taking eachother's place from time to time. But most often through all the yearsthe streets are filled with those who, day by day, come in from all thecountry round, bringing their produce, seeking what they lack, and alloblivious of the learned life of Oxford.
