To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is full of dramatic vigour, and is pervaded by a certain homely grandeur of style, which contrasts very effectively with the baldness of the Coventry playwright or the turgidity of the Chester.* The next play in the cycle, that of the Playsterers, carries on the work of Creation to the fifth day. Deus is the only speaker in this seemingly uninteresting play, but undoubtedly he had a number of active co-operators working in silence. If this was not so there would be but little justification f...or the presentation at all. That the creation of the firmament, division of waters, creation and distribution of animals were allotted to the guild of Plasterers is a presumption that more than mere narration of the work took place.f If there were not silent workmen actually in that pageant. Deus Himself displayed prearranged material. This play would illustrate what has been said of the difficulty to form an accurate estimate of character-treatment from the manuscript account. How, for instance, the "moo sutyll werkys,'* which Deus in one place promises to *'asse-say," fitted in with the words of the text, it is impossible to decide.
