What reading level is The Oxford Reformers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' " But this reformation and restoration in ecclesiastical affairs must needs begin with you, our fathers, and then afterwards descend upon us your priests and the whole clergy. For you are our chiefs — you are our examples of life. To you we look as waymarks for our direction. In you and in your lives we desire to read, as in living books, how we ourselves should live. Wherefore, if you wish to see our motes, first take the beams out of your own eyes; for it is an old proverb, ' Physician heal... thy- self. ' Do you, spiritual doctors, first assay that medicine for the purgation of morals, and then you may offer it to us to taste of it also.
" The way, moreover, by which the Church is to be reformed and restored to a better condition is not to enact any new laws (for there are laws enough and to spare). As Solomon says, ' There is no new thing under the sun. ' The diseases which are now in the Church were the same in former ages, and there is no evil for which the holy fathers did not provide excellent remedies ; there are no crimes in prohibition of which there are not laws in the body of the Canon Law.
