What reading level is Hereford book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But if we cannot visit St. Ethelbert's shrine, we can visit another, which is six hundred years old, and which was erected to hold the bones of a very celebrated Bishop of Hereford, who was such a good man, that, after his death, people thought he deserved the name of Saint ; Thomas de Can- tilupe.
It stands in the north transept, and is just a great marble chest, with what looks like another ' openwork ' chest, also of marble, above it.
Round the sides of the lower chest a great many figures a...re carved, and if we look at them closely we shall see that they are figures of Knights Templars, with their cloaks and crosses, for Bishop de Cantilupe was Grand Master of that Order.
Perhaps he obtained this office because he was very fond of soldiers, and when he was a little boy he wanted to become one.
This was a very natural wish, for he was the son of a powerful Baron, who had an estate and HEREFORD 35 * manor' in Buckinghamshire, and to become a soldier was the common lot of most boys in his position.
