To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But before any attack is made the king has the traitors draggedby four horses round the castle, through the valleys, and overmounds and hillocks. Count Engres is sore grieved when he seesthose whom he held dear dragged round his castle; and the otherswere much dismayed; but for all the dismay that they feel thereatthey have no desire to surrender. Needs must they defendthemselves; for the king displays openly to all his displeasureand his wrath; and full well they see that if he held them hewou...ld make them die shamefully.
When the four had been drawn and their limbs lay o'er the field, then the attack begins; but all their toil is vain; for howsoeverthey may hurl and throw their missiles, they can avail nought. And yet they try hard; they throw and hurl a thick cloud of boltsand javelins and darts. The catapults and slings make a great dinon all sides; arrows and round stone fly likewise in confusion asthick as rain mingled with hail. Thus they toil all day: thesedefend, and those attack until night separates them, one from theother, nor need they trouble to flee, nor do they see.
