What reading level is The Celtic Church of Wales book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For minor orders a bishop was authorised to give it. What- ever may have been the case in early times, in mediaeval times dispensations were numerous, and frequent examples may be found in the registers of the English bishops ; for instance, in the Durham register, ^ in 1340, there is one in respect of William Perour, who, after inquiry, was certified not to be " an imitator of the paternal inconti- nence", and in spite of his defect of birth was allowed to receive all orders, and hold an eccle...siastical benefice with the cure of souls. In the Celtic Church this question could not arise, as legitimacy was not a necessity to entitle a person to tribal rights ; and as the tribe of the Saint in its organization followed the tribe of the land, it was but required for a person to become a member of the tribe of the Saint, and, when he was once a member, orders followed as of course. To the Celt, the question of the birth before or after marriage, or even without marriage, was of but slight importance ; it was the fact, not the date of paternity, that they regarded; indeed, among the Welsh Saints illegitimacy is almost a character- istic.
