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

The eighteenth-century builders 136 The Cathedral : Exterior have taken advantage of the cathedral's peculiar site to emphasize the grandiose effects they loved. Very fitting seems the fine and broad flight of stone steps, winding in four stages, with their balustrades, which lead up to this west door. They are admirably adapted for the processional ceremonies of the church.
The fagade is composed of three storeys, with columns of the mixed order, and covered with an opulence of ornament — bas-
...reliefs, grotesques, twists and coils of granite, flowers and fruit, and what not. It is flanked on either side by lofty towers — the Bell Tower on the right and the Rattle on the left ; it occupies the centre only of a vast architectural fa9ade, on the one side extending to the chapter-house and other rooms on the west of the cloister, and on the north side another long line of dependent buildings, connected with the Archbishop's palace.
It is the effect of immense size, which makes the Obradoiro facade so highly impressive.
