To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


In Lincoln Cathedral and the Churches of Heck- ington, Lincolnshire, Hawton, Notts, and Patrington, Yorkshire, are magnificent Easter sepulchres, all remarkable for the excellence of their sculpture, representing the risen Lord, with angels, and a row of sleeping soldiers below. The sedilia at Tewkes- bury, Heckington, Winchelsea, Paignton, Temple Balsall, Dorchester, Bristol, Ripon and Exeter Cathedrals, JBitton and Hawton are of beautiful detail.
Of that exceedingly rare feature the sculpture
...d reredos, there are two interesting ones belonging to this period. In most old English churches the east window or windows were a few feet only above the altar, thus leaving but little room for sculptured imagery whether in single figures or in groups. One of these Decorated reredoses is in Bampton Church, Oxfordshire. It consists of thirteen arcades tref oiled, surmounted by crocketed gables, of which the central one is wider than the rest, and contains a figure of our Lord, seated holding up both hands, and showing the stigmata.
