To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Bernhard, the famous preacher of the crusade (whose followers eventually possessed, merely in the Rhine-gau, six monastic establishments — namely, Tiefenthal, Gottesthal, Eberbach, Eibinger, Nothgottes, and Marienhausen), was attacked by a holy itch, or irresistible determination to erect THE MONASTERY OF EHERBACH. 160 a monastery ; but not knowing where to drop the foundation-stone, he consulted, it is said, a wild boar, on this important subject. The sagacious creature shrewdly listened to th...e human being who addressed it ; and a mysterious meeting being agreed upon, he silently grubbed with his snout, in the valley of Eberbach, lines marking out the foundation of the building ; and certainly such a lovely stye, for men basking in sunshine, to snore away their ex- istence, no animal but a pig would ever have thought of!
St. Bern hard, highly approving of the boar's taste, employed the best architects to carry his plan into execution ; and sparing no expense, a magnificent cathedral — a large palace with a mo- nastery connected together by colonnades, as well as ornamented in various places with the image of a pig, its founder — were quickly reared upon the spot ; and when all was completed, monks were brought to the abode, and the holy hive, for many centuries, was heard buzzing in the wild mountains which surrounded it : however, in the year 1803, the Duke of Nassau took violent pos- session of its honey, and its inmates were thus rudely shaken from their cells.
