What reading level is Sicily in Fable, History, Art, And Song book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The humiliation of applying to those whom they had so lately hounded out of the city kept them silent for a time ; but at length one of the allies came forward in the Assembly, and proposed the recall of Dion. Accordingly, they sent Hellanicus and four other Syracusan horsemen, and of the allies Archonides and Telesides, charging them to ride with all speed to Leontini. They reached that city in the evening, immediately found Dion, and related to him the awful sufferings of the Syracusans. They... fell at the feet of the man whom they had so lately tried to murder; and with tears and lamentations besought him to save them from the fate they had so richly deserved, and he listened, with rare generosity, to their piteous tale.
A general assembly of the Leontines was called, which Dion addressed in an eloquent and pathetic appeal. He said that he could not dictate to the Peloponnesians and allies what course they should follow ; but if they would forget the past, and all the wrongs inflicted upon them by the blinded and reckless Syracusans, and would go to their aid, Syracuse would owe her very existence to their noble magnanimity.
