What reading level is The Pardoners Wallet book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There was nothing in it akin to serious public spirit. It was a whimsical liking, like that of Touch- stone for Audrey, "An ill-favoured thing, sir, but mine own ; a poor humour of mine, sir, to take that that no man else will. " When several thousand people, set down in the midst of a howling wilderness, tacitly agree to consider it as the garden of the Lord, they can do much. It pleases the ephemeral community to make believe that it is permanent. The camp organizes itself into a city, with a...ll the offices and dignities appertaining thereto. Civilization is extemporized like a game of dumb crambo. It amuses the citizens to see their beloved city going about in institutions several sizes too large for it. Nothing is taken literally. Humor is accepted not as a private possession, but as a public trust, and cultivated in a spirit of generous coopera- tion.
In the town were men whose education and A COMMUNITY OF HUMORISTS 181 experience had been in the great world. There were mine superintendents who a little while ago might have been in Germany or Cornwall ; there were assayers and engineers fresh from the great technical schools, and "experts" full of geological lore.
