What reading level is The Lost Key book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
None knew better than he how to recall the wandering eye, to fix the roving thought, or to rouse, if need be, the sleepy and listless mind. It is not to our present purpose to record every par- ticular of the lesson which the second class that morning received from his lips : suffice it to say that, after the usual hymns and les- sons had been repeated, he chose, as the THE LOST KEY. 89 subject on which to address and question the boys, the history of Cain and Abel. Striking indeed were the les...sons he drew from it. Simply and clearly did he show how one sin leads on to another, sins of thought almost invariably to sins of action ; how, in Cain's case, the sin of envy led to the dreadful crime for which, with God's mark upon his brow, he wandered a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth : how, in hundreds of other cases, the sin of covetousness leads on to lying, deceit and theft ; and how bad thoughts, of what- ever kind, if indulged in, like thistles in a garden, choke and sometimes utterly destroy, in the garden of the heart, the lovely flowers of holiness and virtue which would other- wise flourish there.
