What reading level is The Heroes of Asgard Tales From Scandinavian book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Frig^a was the patroness of married love, of the happiness and duties of the home (originally, she THE WANDERINGS OF FREYJA. 189 and Freyja and all the great goddesses were probably personifications of the earth) ; but Freyja, as goddess of love, is less developed in idea than Frigga, she has more of the nature goddess, less of the woman in her. She was said to divide the spoil with Odin in battle, taking half the slain for herself and leaving him the other half, which points to her having been... at one time his wife and sharing all with him. Supposing her to have been the beautiful year, or rather the earth during the beautiful part of the year, Odur leaving her would imply the beginning of the shortening of the days at midsummer. The source of summer flies, Summer seeks him weeping golden tears. Do these mean Autumn's golden leaves and falling fruits? or that the Sun's beautiful gifts must ever follow him.
This myth of Summer's source, the Sun, declining from the year has, it is supposed, been given to Odur because it was not important enough to belong to the greatest of the gods, although it was really wrapped up in his nature, and the names Odur and Odin are identical in German.
