What reading level is Bibliographical And Textual Problems of the English Miracle Cycles book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. . . , Ve]^hyn, „^ht.^.. CWi probably right in reading 'se yt. \ Also in L S9 Y U sJooe reading ' brandyng ' for ' bourdyng. * MIRACLE CYCLES. 93 that forms what I may call the problem of the Doctors' play.
To solve it we must turn to the texts themselves, and to be^in with let us consider rather closer the relation of the Wakefield play to that of York. So far as W is extant it presents only two passages not parallel to Y. Scene i and part of scene 2 are lost. The remainder of scene 2 is in q...uatrains, and is much fuller than in Y, which it in no way resembles. The parallelism begins with scene 3 and continues to the end, with the exception of the passage dealing with the Commandments, where again W rewrites the text in quatrains, expanding considerably. Either, therefore, the reda6lor of W deliberately departed from his copy, or that copy was defecftive. Anyhow, we may assume that he did not work on our extant manuscript of the York cycle. For one thing, we have previously seen reason to believe that the Wakefield borrowings took place at a time before the latest additions to the York cycle had been made ; for another the Wakefield manuscript may possibly be itself older than that of York.
