What reading level is Borough Seals of the Gothic Period a Series of Examples Illustrating the Natu book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The town in the eleventh century, with the manor of Saltwood, was annexed to the archiepiscopal See of Canterbury. At this time Hythe, by reason of its IPSWICH 77 excellent harbour, was a place of considerable maritime importance, and consequently was included amongst the Cinque Ports. It was rated at five ships, with twenty men and a boy in each. Towards the end of the thirteenth century, 200 French soldiers landed here, but met with such a warm reception that not one lived to return. In the r...eign of Rich. II. Hythe was devastated by fire, earthquake, and pestilence. During this threefold visitation, many houses, ships, and lives were lost. Thus reduced and impoverished, the residents remaining decided to abandon the place, but were prevailed upon to remain by the King, who relieved them for a while from their obligations as inhabitants of a Cinque Port. After this, through the gradual withdrawal of the sea, its trade and commerce declined, and became ultimately quite extinguished.
The seal reproduced is that of the Jurats.
