What reading level is Studies in Arcady And Other Essays From a Country Parsonage book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is a link with an altogether vanished world of thought and feeling, a world more sympathetic and imaginative and less mechanical and utilitarian than our own. In the same way in old France the magpie was called 'Margot. ' This is altogether delightful in its kindly suggestion of some garrulous old woman, an inmate of the house who is at once a dependent and a friend. There were many proverbs redolent of delightful country scenes and things. ' As sure as God made little apples ' is from the c...ider country, a bit of summer evening gossip from a Somerset- shire village deep in orchards, with busy swifts around a grey church tower. The language of the present day is as mechanical as it well can be. Things are named with literal exactness they are given some Greek or Latin name precisely describing the function they perform, as, say, 'telegraph. ' The people substitute the shortest and most obvious English word possible, 'wire. ' Whatever wonder or romance there may be about science, there is none about its nomenclature.
