What reading level is The Cathedral Church of Salisbury: a Description of Its Fabric And a Brief ... book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From the rood screen the sequence of the figures of the patriarchs and prophets leads up to the climax of " Our Lord in Glory." At this point the capitals of the Purbeck shafts, surrounding the pillars supporting the arch on which this figure is painted, are carved in foliage, unlike the others throughout the building, which are invariably moulded only.
The whole subject is discussed at length in a paper printed in the ** Wilts Archaeological Magazine," vol. xvii., in a way that supports the hy...pothesis advanced. A somewhat impor- tant piece of circumstantial evidence came to light during the late restoration, namely a windlass close to the pier on the north side of the supposed original site of the altar, which was possibly intended to raise and lower a baldichino, or ciborium that hung originally over the altar, or still more probably the pyx, which as many instances show was usually suspended above it.
Possibly the altar was moved when, owing to the early settle- ment of some of the piers, it was found necessary to wall up the space between the arches opening into the choir transepts, and insert the perpendicular arches as a counter thrust to the strain of the central tower.
