To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The single devotional figures of St. Henry exhibit him in complete armor, wearing the imperial crown ; in one hand, his sword, or the orb of sovereignty ; in the other he usually holds the cathedral of Bamberg. The effigies of Cunegunda represent her as empress, wearing a long veil under her diadem ; and in her hand she also bears the cathedral of Bamberg as joint founder, — or it may be the church of St. Stephen at Bamberg, of which she was sole founder. In a print by Hans Burgmair, she is ste...pping over the red-hot ploughshares, and holds a ploughshare in her hand. Henry, having been a great protector of religion in Italy as well as in Germany, is sometimes found in Italian pictures, particularly at Florence, where he built and endowed the church of San Miniato, so famous in Florentine story. The legend of " St. Laurence and the Emperor Henry " occurs fre- quently in old Florentine Art. I found in the Pitti Palace a picture representing St. Henry and St. Cunegunda standing with a lily between them, — emblem of their chastity.
