What reading level is The Lays of Beleriand book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There are, : however, several passages of interest for the study of the larger development of the legends.
In the Tale, Tuor was the son of Peleg (who was the son of Indor, II. 160), but here he is the son of Fengel; while on a scrap of paper giving rough workings of the passage cited above* Tuor himself is called Fengel - cf. 'Earendel son of Fengel' at the end of the fragment of an Earendel Lay, p. 141. Long afterwards Fengel was the name of the fifteenth King of Rohan in the Third Age, grandf...ather of Theoden, and there it is the , 'Old English noun fengel 'king, prince'.
There are some puzzling statements made concerning Fingolfin, whose appearance here, I feel certain, is earlier than those in the alliterative poems; and the passage in which he appears introduces also the story of Isfin and Eol.
(* This is the page referred to in Unfinished Tales p. 4: some lines of verse in which appear the Seven Names of Gondolin are scribbled on the back of a piece of paper setting out "the chain of responsibility in a battalion".' Not knowing at that time where this isolated scrap came from I took this as an indication of very carly date, but this is certainly mistaken: the paper must have survived and been used years later for rough writing.) Lo, that prince of Gondobar [Meglin] dark Eol's son whom Isfin, in a mountain dale afar in the gloom of Doriath's forest, the white-limbed maiden bare, the daughter of Fingolfin, Gelmir's mighty heir.
