What reading level is The Following of Christ book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

When there is hunger and thirst there is also trouble. Fourthly, the righteous man will not be troubled when his soul is given up to God, when all worldliness hath disappeared, and divinity standeth alone before him, in which he findeth joy. But if the man throw- eth a glance on his neighbour of human kind and seeth his misery he must then suffer with OP CHRIST. 259 him. But such trouble doth not hinder the righteous, for righteousness springeth from charity. In the Gospel it is written of Jesu...s, " Jesus shuddered in spirit, and was troubled. " This was sympathy which he had for us. Fifthly, the righteous soul is unable to be troubled when all created objects are set aside and it is wrapped in the uncreated, which is God, where it alone findeth peace and suffi- ciency. But when the interest of the man concentrateth itself in created objects, which lead the soul not to God, then the spirit is troubled, because its sanctity is not fashioned and formed in that shape, he is, therefore, not able to be quiet *of spirit ; but even this dis- turbance of the spirit is not destructive, for it gradually driveth away all things that, are not God, until God finally alone abideth with him.
