To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The outer or recessed aisle is narrower than the inner, an inequality corrected very skilfully at the opening into the south transept by an im- perceptible deviation in the line of columns. Very little light penetrates through the narrow slits in the chapel walls into this sombre, beautiful arcade. Behind the reredos of the High Altar sleeps the learned bishop, Don Alonso Fernindez de Mad- rigal, surnamed el Tostado and el Abulense, who died in 14SS- The prelate, who was one of the most prolifi...c writers that ever lived, is shown in alabaster writing at a desk. The framework of the tomb is adorned with reliefs of the Adora- AVILA I'S I tion of the Magi and Shepherds, of the Divine and Cardinal Virtues, and of the Eternal Father. This noble work has been variously ascribed to Berruguete and to Domenico FascelH, whose more famous performance we shall see in the church of Santo Tomis. In the chapel of Santa Ana is buried Don Sancho Davila, Bishop of Plasencia, who died in 1625. Most of the tombs in the chapels of the chevet belong, however, to the thirteenth century, though the dates on most of them arc merely conjectural, and were inscribed in the sixteenth century by a prebendary of the cathedral.
