What reading level is Archaeologia Cantiana volume 9 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
150 THE BRASS OF SIR JOHN DE NORTHWODE to the same toml), or being arraiig'ed side by side on one slab.
There is yet another, still more remarkable, feature in this figure. The whole of the lower part, from the knees downward, does not correspond in character mth the upper. The armour, and the style of the lion, * are of a much later time, and the general execution, couiDled with the rest, will not allow us to think this portion to be at all earlier tlian the sixteenth century. The metal also i...s of a different colour. When my brother and I first examined this curious monument, in April, 1838, we at once came to the conclusion that it was a restoration, and no part of the original design. The crossed legs, so fantastically rendered, when com- pared side by side with other examples, which require the knees to be luore approximated, confirmed us in our views, for this was evidently not the original position in which the legs had been arranged. In Stothard's work on ' Monuments ' this figure is en- graved, and he has kept a separating space between this portion and the rest, evidently shewing that he had perceived the distinction existing, betwixt the older and the more recent work.
