What reading level is Old St. Paul's Cathedral book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Paul's, but we have to speak more fully of these, for they formed a very large source of income, especially to the Residentiary Canons. These Chantries were founded for saying masses for the souls of the departed, even to the end of the world. St. Paul's was almost beyond measure rich in them. The oldest was founded in the reign of Henry II., after which time they multiplied so fast that it would be impossible to enumerate them all here. There is a return of them (quoted at length by Dugdale), ...which was made by order of King Edward VI. Take the description of the second of them as he gives it. "The next was ordained by Richard, surnamed Nigell [Fitzneal], Bishop of London in King Richard I.'s time, who having built two altars in this cathedral, the one dedicated to St. Thomas the 56 OLD ST. PAUL'S Martyr, and the other to St. Dionis, assigned eight marks yearly rent, to be received out of the church of Cestreheart, for the maintaining of two priests celebrating every day thereat ; viz., one for the good estate of the King of England and Bishop of London for the time being ; as also for all the congregation of this church, and the faithful parishioners belonging thereto, and the other for the souls of the Kings of England and Bishops of London, and all the faithful deceased : which grant was confirmed by the Chapter." This is a fair specimen ; they go on page after page in Dugdale's folio.
