Sample Text
"Picture this. Across an open field, two men on horseback charge at each other. The blazing sun makes their steel armor glisten. The aim of one is to protect the castle on the hill. The other hopes to take the castle. All around them, men are fighting. Their swords clash and clang as they touch. At last, the razor-sharp point of one sword pierces the armor of the other knight. Badly wounded, that. . . "

"Imagine a time without TVs, cars, computers, and flush toilets. Imagine a time when most people worked hard tilling the soil with simple implements and couldn't even call that land their own. Imagine a time when so little was known about disease that the average life span was 35 years, and many children died in infancy. Welcome to the Middle Ages.. . . "
