What reading level is Subject to Vanity book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They went down to him, and he asked them to come and have supper with him. They came, and found the bread laid out, plate-wise, and the roast meat on it. They ate and talked to him, and after their meal went on their journey. They never asked for nor heard his name, nor he theirs, they will 51 52 SUBJECT TO VANITY never meet again ; but that Persian gentleman will be as vivid to them until the day of their death as a friend of years.
Such memory of a mere passing chance acquaint- ance is not co...nfined to human beings. Sometimes one meets animals for an hour or two, sometimes one accidentally lights upon them in a crisis of their lives, such even as their death, and one suddenly and unexpectedly understands and knows them. Some people and animals one never gets near. You may, for instance, sit opposite people in church for years, know all their Sunday dresses and hats, and how much they give in the offertory, and be not a bit nearer to them in the end than at the beginning. Such is the acquaintance one has with caterpillars; they are always just the same; they eat and grow and become cocoons, and re- appear as butterflies, and there is no character from beginning to end.
