Poco natural
"it embodies a clear, accessible standard for everybody to follow be it in books." what does the stucture"to follow be it" mean? it sounds natural but i can't understand this grammar. does this sound natural ?
Something is wrong with your quote. It seems that parts of two sentences are blended into one incorrect run-on string of phrases.
"It embodies a clear, accessible standard for everybody to follow."
This is a complete sentence.
"Be it inbooks"
This is the opening clause of the next sentence but you have left out the rest of the second sentence. It should say something like this:
"Be it in books or in oral legends, the lessons are the same."
