To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

in 1319. The principal saints represented in the churches and monasteries of the Olivetani are St. Benedict, as patriarch, and St.
Bernard of Clairvaux, the patron saint of their founder.
Only in late pictures do we find the founder himself, generally in the white Benedictine habit, with a branch of olive in his hand, in allusion to the name of his Order. In a picture by Salviati (Bologna, S. Cristina) he kneels before the Madonna, and at his feet is a small model of a hill, with an olive-tree,
... and a cell, at the summit. In a picture by Pamfilo he receives fVom the Blessed Virgin branches of Olive. (Cremona. Church of S. Lorenzo.) The saint who figures in the Olivetan foundations as the boast of their Order is St. Francesca Roniana, as her name implies, a Roman saint. (March 9, 1440.) Effigies of her abound in Rome ; we even meet with them on the outer walls of the houses. Her convent, in the Torre de' Spechi, is (or was) the best seminary in Rome for young women of the higher classes.
