What reading level is Rome book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There sleeps, too, another pope of the house of Savelli, Honorius III., who, in 1216, succeeded Innocent IH. ; this chapel belonged to the family.
Let us not forget near the ambones, which are of the twelfth century, and remarkably beautiful, a tomb- stone set up against the wall, which must oblige Queen Catherine of Bosnia, widow of that King Stephen whom Mahomet II. had flayed alive, to sleep standing ; nor, in a chapel to the left, the mausoleum of Philip of Valla, a Florentine monument of r...are delicacy. The two weeping genii who bear the scutcheons, the reclining statue, the arabesques of the lower part, are treated in a masterly manner.
186 EOME.
At the bottom of the nave close to the door, the chapel of the Bufalini, dedicated to St. Bernardino of Siena, was decorated by Pinturicchio with fres- coes which rank among his very finest works : the death of the saint, who has had himself laid on a bier, where he expires in the midst of his religious breth- ren, is a most skilful composition.
