To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the early part of the thirteenth century Oxford is organized; in the days, for instance, when GroetSte was the leader of its philosophy and other studies. lo a list of towns, written in the handwriting of Henry III.'s reign, the schools of Oxford are mentioned as a distinctive feature of that town. I do not intend to draw a negative inference when I men- tion that Gambridge is also noted, but only as being distinguished for its eels. These two ancient institutions, when they come before us, ...are self-governing corporations, having a ruler, a law, and judges of their own, holding property, real and personal, admitting persons to their franchises, and banishing them, and are entirely independent of the municipalities in which they were situate. In course of time the urban authorities of Oxford town are subordinated to the university, and it was the boast of the academical corporations that they were entirely exempt from any secular or spiritual authority. The privileges they possessed were confirmed by charters, and long after the history of these corpora- tions began they had the distinction, alone, I believe, among analogous institutions, of being confirmed by Act of Parliament.
