To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At last, when his father lay dying, he asked, " Since Robert has Nor- mandy and William England, what shall I I»2 Feudal Chateaux have?" and his father answered, "Have pa- patience, and it may so chance that thou have England and Normandy. If not, patience is best of all." My lord could not abide that the word " Bastard " should be written after the name of any son of his, and Lanfranc, having the oiliest tongue amongst us all, was posted off to Rome to wheedle the Pope, which he did to such pu...rpose that his Holiness declared the excommunication off and the marriage sound if the Duke would build an abbey for holy monks, and the Duchess one for nuns. This was exactly to their mind, for, as I have said, they had each a passion for building. Lan- franc had brought back with him some draw- ings of churches in Rome, and Gundulph was sent to see the abbey church of Cluny, thought to be the best in France, while I brought out the plans and studies I had made in Paris. Our buildings were mostly of rough stone, whose wide, uneven joints were filled in with plaster, with much use of timber.
