What reading level is Proverb Lore; Many Sayings, Wise Or Otherwise, On Many Subjects, Gleaned From Many Sources book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many of these we cannot now really attribute to any particular individual. They often refer to some local cir- cumstance, some story that has been forgotten. In some cases, as in " Hobson's choice " or " the case is altered, quoth Plowden," we are dealing with real individuals ; in other cases we may reasonably as- sume that we are, though we cannot prove it ; while, in a third section, the matter is considerably more doubtful. Proverbs, for instance, that deal only with Christian names probabl...y do not allude to any particular individual, and it may be assumed that these names are there to give a concrete realism such as the rustic loves, and are of no more definite existence than "Tom, Dick, and Harry," or "Tag, Rag, and Bobtail" — all representative of the units PROVERB LORE 1^7 forming some gathering. In some cases it is a passing skit on some local character who has laid himself open in some way ; while in others, such as " Madam Parnell, crack the nut and eat the kernel," or " Mock not, quoth Mumford," the things owe all the brilliancy they possess to the attraction of rhyme or alliteration.
