What reading level is The Open Court 32, No.748 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
THE NORTHERN ORIGIN OF THE STORY OF TROY. 539 Syrith whose hair turned to fur in her winter captivity (Troja- burgen, pp. 157 and 298).
The legend of St. Margaret shows evidence of being a com- plete canonization of the Syrith story. Because the dragon is usually associated with her on images of saints, the legend of Mar- garet of Antioch has been frequently merged with that of St.
George, however without justification — as if she represented the sun maiden who, after being liberated by St. Geo...rge, led the con- quered dragon to the city by her garter. But old texts and eccle- siastical paintings have a different story of her struggle with the dragon. x-\ccording to them, she is handed over into the power of a taskmaster from the country, just as Syrith is, and she has to tend the swine of her violator as the other has to tend his goats.
Again like Syrith she is led away from her herd to the Roman governor, Olibrius, who wants to marry her. Since she refuses, her father, the idolatrous priest, ^disius, has her thrown into prison, and here her courage is so little broken that she desires to fight with the devil himself.
