      You mean, you cannot read cursive? I’m not even english native speaker and can read this easily, interesting

      EDIT: ok I’m not english native, I didn’t want to offense anyone, I’m just an old coot who learnt cursive and only cursive at school in the 70s. I don’t know how to write with “block letters”

        I am an even older fart, and I TAUGHT cursive. The only “cursive” here is the angry scrawl of someone who’d prefer to be cursing.

        Look, for example, at the word immediately after HOLY MONTH. The closest correct cursive letters to fit the scrawl are:

        “itreit”.

        It’s only by context, and allowing for the angry misplacement of the tittle, that we can read it as “that.”
