To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The particulars of the government of this memorable prince, who shed a short-lived lustre on the Gothic name, are recorded in twelve books by his secretary, the senator Cassiodorus, a man of learning, who induced his illiterate master to become a patron of art and literature. Towards the close of his reign an intolerant edi(5l of the Byzantine court against the Arians in his dominions induced this prince, against his usual policy to meditate a retaliation against the orthodox of Italy, which, h...owever, was frustrated by his death. It is to be lamented that an adl of tyranny against two exemplary charadlers, Boetius and Symmachus, his father-in-law, closed his career. These senators were both arbitrarily put to death on the mere suspicion of an intrigue between a senatorial party and the imperial court.
No sooner had this cruel a6t been perpetrated than Theo- doric was seized with remorse, and a fever ensued which terminated his existence in three days, leaving his sceptre in the hands of a feeble boy, diredted indeed by an able and high-minded woman, Amalasuntha,Theodoric's widow- ed daughter, who was ungratefully betrayed and put to 235 CATHEDRALS OF NORTHERN ITALY death by her cousin Theodatus, called by herself to the throne left vacant by the premature death of her son Atha- laric.
