To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After the meal the monks spent three hours in the chapel^ on their knees, still silent; then they confessed in turn to the abbot and then sought their hard-earned rest. They held all things in com- mon; no one even received a gift for himself.
War never reached them; it was the rarest thing for an armed party to molest their com- posure ; their domains were regarded as a haven for the stormy world. Because there were so many such places in Ireland, it was known as The Isle of Saints.
Brandan wa...s sent after a time to other abbeys, where he could pursue especial studies, for they had six branches of learning, — gram- mar, rhetoric, dialectics, geometry, astronomy, and music. Thus he passed three years, and was then advised to go to an especial teacher in the mountains, who had particular modes of teaching certain branches. But this priest — he was an Italian — was suffering from pov- 112 The Voyage of St. Brandan erty, and could receive his guest but for a few weeks. One day as Brandan sat studying, he saw, the legend says, a white mouse come from a crack in the wall, a visitor which climbed upon his table and left there a grain of wheat.
