To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The modern custom of averting plague or dis- aster, by carrying the body of the tutelary saint through the city, has its undeniable prototype in the gods accustomed to be borne along when dan- ger or defeat threatened the old commonwealth. The procession of the host is of common occur- rence, and is a much more unpretending ceremony. When a person is dangerously ill the priest is sent for, who carries, with much state, the consecrated host to the house of the sick. A procession is formed, heade...d by one or more priests and several of the attendants of the Church, all clad in their officiating dresses. A few pious individuals gene- rally join the solemn train. One of their number goes a short distance before with a bell, which he rings occasionally to announce the approach of the host. All within sound of this fall upon their knees, and remain uncovered until the priest and his attendants have passed on. This is a natural result of the belief in transubstantiation. Consi- dering that the priest holds in his hands the real 132 PROCESSION OF THE HOST.
