What reading level is Nonconformity in Wales book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
All these contributed to the nature and growth of the new life ; and, except the last named, they came from the Anglican Church.
But from within that Church the greatest force in aid of Nonconformity was imparted by the puritan vicar of Llandovery — Rhys Prichard, who died in 1644. If traditions are trustworthy, it was some years after his ordination at Witham, and his return to Wales in 1602, that his real conversion and consecration took place. His fervent preach- ing soon spread his fame far... and wide ; when he visited the cathedral church of St. David's as preacher, a movable pulpit had to be improvised, from which he preached in the churchyard to the vast congregations. No note is made of his view of the Book of Sports, in 1617 or 1633.
If he refused to read it — as his songs might lead us to expect — it is surmised that the protection of influential friends sheltered him from episcopal frowns. But possibly he con- sidered conformity, with all its moral incon- veniences, preferable to the unknown risks of " inconformity.
