What reading level is The Arms of the Scottish Bishoprics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The children immediately sprang- up alive and well. This legend has been sometimes understood to be symbolic of Baptism ; the Bishop represents the Church, rescuing souls from death by the saving rite of Baptism ; and the inn-k<:eper is sometimes depicted as a demon with horns and hoofs, and the salting- tub as a font. A representation of this legend first appears on the seal of the town in 1430, and in it the three children are repre- sented in the tub of the legend. When, however, the arms were recorded in the Lvon Ofiice, this was altered into a 35 " boiling chauldron, " and this blazon was retained by Woodwaid in the arms of the diocese of Aberdeen. It was probably from this legend that St. Nicholas came to be venerated as the patron samt of children — especially schoolboys — and in this character he annually comes on Christmas Eve under the guise of Santa Claus, i. E. , Nicholas. He died in 326 or 342 on December 6th, and was buried at Bari in Apulia. The seols of the mediaeval Bishops, though interesting as bearing for the most part, shields charged with their paternal aims, have no bearing on the arms at present in use in the diocese.
