What reading level is The Early Cymry And Their Church book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Hardly had the Roman evacuation been effected, when the heretical tenets of Pelagius, a Celtic layman and monk, made an inroad upon the Catholic faith in Brit- ain. The heresy involved the denial of the doctrine of Original, or Birth-sin ; the necessity of Infant Baptism ; and of divine grace to perform good works. Pelagius personally pro- pagated his doctrines in Rome, whither he went, after a visit to Gaul, probably with the general exodus at the time of the withdrawal of the Roman troops. Th...ere, in spite of his erroneous views, he was esteemed for his piety by St. Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, who 'pre- sented an uncompromising opposition to his tenets.
Pelagianism became rife in Gaul, where it spread with such rapidity as to induce the em- peror Valentinian to issue an edict, A. D. 425, to Patroclus, Archbishop of Aries, empowering him to summon all the bishops who were tainted with the heresy, and to send them into banish- ment, if they did not recant within twenty days. The heresy is said to have been introduced into Britain by Agricola, the son of a bishop, who probably was among the fugitives driven hither by the edict.
