What reading level is The Legends of Flowers Or Tis Love That Makes the World Go Round book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ay, truly, she knew their folly and their ignorance, their feebleness and their pride, and felt powerless to defend their cause.
But moved by her deep compas- sion for them, she exclaimed : "Oh ! great and omnipotent god, all that you say is only too true; still, you have inflicted too much sorrow, too much suffering upon my world, where many groan under both who do not deserve either. For one peal of laughter I hear a hundred sobs. I see man born weeping of a mother who moans in travail. I see... him die in the midst of other men, who surround him sobbing bitterly. And even to those few blessed ones who are al- lowed to drink of the cup of happi- ness, its sweetness is dashed by the dread of death, for dread in itself is acute suffering. " The god heaved a deep sigh, and for a moment was lost in thought.
The popes of Rome are called infallible; they never can make mis- takes.
Not so the gods, who sometimes repent of their actions.
And on this occasion, having heard the Earth's lamentations, this god seemed to repent what he had done.
