Unfortunately I can answer this one, because it happened to me 3 times.
Gained 12th and then lost it again to the Gnoll Commanders of Black Burrow.
First time I was scared. I didn't really want to go and spend all the money
on the spells again. So, after I was 'returning to home point' I immediately
sat down and started memorizing. Good thing is, your spells are still
scribed in your spell book. However, the game tells you that 'you're not
high enough level to memorize that spell'....

Conclusion: Die all your want !!

simply not be able to memorize the higher level spells? Or would you be
able to memorize them, just not be able to cast them? or would you be able
to cast them because you have been to that level?
