To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Eloy, is unfortunately to a great extent legendary, since no actual work of his survives, nor anything we can with certainty ascribe to his influence, except it be the so-called chair of Dagobert, and the coinage of the reigns of Dagobert and Clothair II. Which bear the name Eligius. Eloy was born in the village of Chatelat, some two leagues from Limoges, in the year 588, and is said to have been early placed with a goldsmith named Abbon, who was specially skilled in his art. Limoges had been a...n important Roman town, and no doubt many of the families then residing there were of Gallo-Roman descent and inherited many of the traditions of Roman civilisation. The town in those days must have worn a very classic aspect, and one at least of its great public buildings, the amphitheatre, was standing perfect centuries after in the reign of Louis le Debonnaire. Eloy's skill in the craft of metal work early brought him under the notice of Clovis II. , as we find that at the age of thirty he was attached to the Court of Dagobert, who succeeded to the throne of all France in 628.
