To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I Ihall therefore in this place infert fome ob- fcrvations upon the othvr parts of the internal evi- Jcuce, which, I think, will corroborate the proof already C 78 I already given, that the Poems attributed to Row- tiLY were not written in the XVth century; and I Ihall alio examine the whole of the external c-ci- denccy which has hitherto been produced in fup- port of their authenticity, I. Next to the confideration of words, taken fingly, with refpcft to their fignifications and in- flexions (...which has been the fubjedt of our former enquiry), we fhould naturally proceed to confidcr them as combined one with another in what arc called PHRASES. However difficult it may be to determine with prccifion, when two or more words were firft combined together, and applied in a particular fenfe, there can be no doubt that many Inch combinations prevail and are familiar in one •jge, which in a former were entirely unknown. It is impoffiblc to read a page of the Poems, with- out obfcrving a number of phrafcs, which, when divcfted of their hard words and uncouth fpelling, are plainly modern, and of which no examples can be produced from any writer of the XVth century.
