To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And his voice amidst the battle ■Was heard at every stound Above the din and rattle, Like the trumpet's silver sound. a tall ship-mast set on a four-wheeled carriage ; and from it were displayed the three sacred banners of Yorkshire, — that of St. Peter of York, St. Wilfrid of Ripon, and St. John of Beverley. Geoffrey de Vinesauf describes the royal banner of Coeur de Lion, as displayed from a precisely similar Standard in his wars in Palestine. In the south of England there were also sometimes... three banners carried, that of St. George, that of St. Edmund, and St. Edward the Confessor. It is singular that of all these, St. George's, a saint whose honour was imported by the Crusaders from the East, should have outlasted the rest, and especially those of four native saints. Walter Espec, says the historian of Rievaulx, was "a man of stature passing tall, but of limbs well proportioned, and which were well fitted to his great height. He had his hair still black, though he was old and full of days ; his beard was long and flowing, his forehead wide and noble, his eyes large and piercing, his face broad but well-featured, and his voice like the sound of a ti-umpet, setting off his natural eloquence of his speech with a kind of majesty of sound.
