What reading level is The "summa Theologica" of St. Thomas Aquinas V.2:2:5 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Wherefore Seneca says {De Clementia ii. 4) that those are called cruel who have reason for punishing, but lack moderation in punish- ing. Those who delight in a man's punishment for its own sake may be called savage or brutal, as though lacking the human feeling that leads one man to love another.
Second Article, whether both clemency and meekness are VIRTUES ?
We proceed thiis to the Second Article : — Objection i. It seems that neither clemency nor meekness is a virtue. For no virtue is oppos
...ed to another virtue.
Yet both of these are apparently opposed to severity, which is a virtue. Therefore neither clemency nor meekness is a virtue.
Obj. 2. Further, Virtue is destroyed by excess and decrease. But both clemency and meekness consist in a certain decrease; for clemency decreases punishment, and meekness decreases anger. Therefore neither clemency nor meekness is a virtue.
Obj. 3. Further, Meekness or mildness is included (Matth.
V. 4) among the beatitudes, and (Gal. v. 23) among the fruits.
