What reading level is Travels in Scotland By An Unusual Route With a Trip to the Orkneys And Hebride book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Indeed, I was led to conclude that some of the groaners had either been employed, or had vo- lunteered their services to Mr. Hill ; but, if employ- ed, he liad unfortunately not fallen on the best, as some of them made the most noise, when, at least so far as I am a judge, there was least occasion for it.
There are women in Edinburgh \\'ho live by the wages of iniquity as well as elsewhere. Colquhoun, in his Police of London, and he seems to have had tolerably good information, says, that there... are fifty thousand women on the town, besides ten thousand that Hve partly by prostitution and partly by other means. The hospitals and physicians books in Edin- burgh seem to indicate, that though in proportion to the population there are not so many riotous eat- ers of flesh, there are as m. AiTy viciously inclined people in Edinburgh as in London.
Q q 2 596 TRAVELS IN SCOTLAND.
Though the poor]s rates in England amount to five miUions stt iling annually, and three of those are paid in London and its environs, and there are no poor's rates in Scotland, yet there are fewer beg- gars in proportion to the number of inhabitants in Edinburgh than in London ; which seems to be owing to this circumstance, that though the Scots have many faults, and laziness is none of the least, yet there is, if I may so express myself, in general j a noble pride about them that induces them to live on their own earnings, however scanty, rather than on the bounty of others.
