What reading level is The Romanticism of St. Francis, And Other Studies in the Genius of the Franciscans book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
S. ClarcB. The mediaeval biographer could not resist the temptation to play upon the word Ortolana, which he takes in a ST. CLARE OF ASSISI 87 So Clare began early to take thought for the poor ; nor would she give to them merely from the common store. Her alms were consecrated by self- sacrifice ; she sent secretly to orphaned children delicacies meant for herself. Also she early acquired a habit of prayer and would withdraw herself into secluded places to pray; and not having yet a chaplet of ...beads upon which to count her Paters — the chaplet may have been a gift in reserve for grown-up days — she collected little heaps of pebbles to serve the purpose. Such acts of piety are not always to be taken too seriously ; they are often the tokens of that religious idealism which makes sweet the childhood of many children, but in after-life fades away before the allurement of worldly pleasures.
But with Clare it would seem that the thought of religion already held the reins of her heart's true desire.
