What reading level is The Chronicle of Ethelfled book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I alfo read the Song of Judith, the life of St» Cuthbert, and of fundry pious women ... a little, but not much of the Bible, which I have fince deeply regretted I was not then put in the way of reading more of. But I read whatever my tutors chofe for me : at firft, chiefly to pleafe the king ; and afterwards, to relieve my mind of Digitized by LjOOQ iC Chronicle of Ethelfled. 77 certain dull thoughts and ufelcfs wifhes, for which, indeed, there is no remedy like ftudy.
If I were to mention all ...the good offers of marriage I had during this winter at court, you, whoever you may be, who are now reading this Chronicle, would certainly be furprifed. In truth, I never had a grain of vanity in my com- pofition ; or elfe, when I have heard other women bragging among themfelves of their diftindions in this particular, (women profefling religion, too, I give you my word for it!) I fhould have told them oftener than I have done, that, an* if I were fo minded, I could outboaft them all. I make it a matter of confcience never to believe fuch perfonal details, be they narrated nevef fo modeftly ; and therefore fhall certainly never expofe myfelf to the humiliation of having my own word doubted, veracious as it is.
