What reading level is The Memoirs of Count Grammont — volume 07 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Duchess of Cleveland was out of humour with the king, because thechildren she had by his majesty were like so many little puppets, compared to this new Adonis. She was the more particularly hurt, as shemight have boasted of being the queen of love, in comparison with theduke's mother.
The king, however, laughed at her reproaches, as, for some time, she hadcertainly no right to make any; and, as this piece of jealousy appearedto be more ill-founded than any she had formerly affected, no pers...onapproved of her ridiculous resentment. Not succeeding in this, sheformed another scheme to give the king uneasiness: Instead of opposinghis extreme tenderness for his son, she pretended to adopt him, in heraffection, by a thousand commendations and caresses, which she was dailyand continually increasing. As these endearments were public, sheimagined they could not be suspected; but she was too well known forher real design to be mistaken. The king was no longer jealous of her;but, as the Duke of Monmouth was of an age not to be insensible to theattractions of a woman possessing so many charms, he thought it proper towithdraw him from this pretended mother-in-law, to preserve hisinnocence, or at least his fame, uncontaminated: it was for this reason, therefore, that the king married him so young.
