What reading level is Pilgrimages to Saint Mary of Walsingham And Saint Thomas of Canterbury book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The hands of many Spanish monks have been observed after death to be perfumed with attar, from their constantly holding the rosary, and never washing off its fragrance, just as the cigar has the same effect on profaner fingers. The illiterate, both Moors, Chinese, and Spaniards, find these beads to be a convenient help in the difficult arithmetical operations of counting the "long prayers" and frequent repetitions which Christianity especially condemns, and the Pope and Mahomet especially requi...re, since such mere repetitions have in both creeds an actual saving virtue of themselves, where forms have been substituted for spiritual essentials. The rosario ought to contain 150 beads, in which only one Pater noster, one Lord's prayer, is allowed for every ten Ave Marias, — ' but one ha'penny-worth of bread to this intolerable deal of sack I ' But these jet chaplets are gloomy when compared to those made in the bright South. Few however of the rosarios of the golden age of Spain have escaped the sacrilegious melting-pot.
