To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
sc. iii.). The "Priory Gate" to the north-east, near the chapter- house, is a plain modern arch, a poor substitute for the two gateways destroyed in the year 181 5. In addition to those already mentioned, there were anciently two other double gateways to the close. One of them stood between the White Hart and Angel Inns, at the west end of Eastgate ; the other was near the deanery, at the end of East Bight. The venerable ruins of the old Palace of the Bishops at Lincoln bear sufficient testimon...y to long years of neglect. But it is gratifying to know that this beautiful spot has been restored in recent years to its ancient use, and that a new bishop's palace now occupies an appropriate place beside the ruins of the old. It lies on the south side of the close, and anciently commanded a lovely view over the straggling city in the valley beneath, and over the surrounding country. The prospect is now marred by a fast-increasing number of tall, smoking chimneys, signs of awakening activity ; but it is still beautiful, and the view of the minster from the palace grounds is as fine as ever.
