To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

For, as he afterwards related, he saw three men in bright garments come to him ; one of whom sat down before his bed, whilst his com- panions stood and inquired about the state of the sick man they came to see : he who was sitting in front of the bed said, that his soul should depart his body without any pain, and with a great splendour of light ; and declared that he should die the third day after ; both which particulars happened, as he had been informed by the vision ; for on the third day a...fter, he suddenly fell, as it were, into a slumber, and breathed out his soul without any sense or pain.
BURIAL' OF KING SEBBI 243 A stone coffin having been provided for burying his body, when they came to Jay it in the same, they found his body a span longer than the coffin. Hereupon they hewed away the stone, and made the coffin about two fingers longer ; but neither would it then contain the body. Under this difficulty of entombing him, they had thoughts either to get another coffin, or else to shorten the body, by bend- ing it at the knees, if they could.
