To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Hadrian (he was now seventy-five years old) had been married before he became a priest ; his wife was still living ; and a tragic event, in which the son of another Prelate, Arseniijs, the late legate in France, was involved, might suggest to the popular mind that the more absolutely the higher clergy were secluded from all do- mestic ties the better. Though the daughter of Hadrian was betrothed to another, she was carried off and married by Eleutherius, the son of Arsenius. Arsenius, implicate...d no doubt in the affair, fled with all his treasures to the court of the Emperor Louis. These treasures he placed in the hands of tne Empress Ingeltruda, probably to secure the im- perial protection for his son. He died suddenly, ^^^ and so great was the hatred against him, that he i^S^*" was said to have been carried off while conversing freely with devils ;^ at all events, he died without the sacrament, and of his eternal damnation no one had any doubt. Hadrian sent a mission to the Emperor to demand that Eleutherius should be judged by the Roman law for the ab- duction of his daughter.
