The script is readable if you are perfectly familiar with it and with the underlying language.

For instance, one must be able to read "sba" in word 4 line 2 (I was confused by the overlapping characters and couldn't recognize the 'b'). Then, knowledge of Latin tells you that this must be a feminine noun in the ablative case. There are not many matches starting with 's' and including a 'b' and "substantia" is the only one that makes sense in this context. All things that the human brain does in a tiny fraction of a second, but if you must google for words or use a dictionary like I have to, reading a short passage easily takes half a hour.
