To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Nor did the veteran hesitate to exhibit his disinclination to enforce those rules amongst his troops. Paul, who would gladly have dispensed with the services of a general who was so popular with the soldiery, and who had been so par- ticularly favoured by his motlier, resolved to take the first opportunity to remove him ; but he was afraid to dismiss him without some pretext, and at first, as he had done with the others whom he secretly intended to disgrace, he confirmed him in all his commands.... Shortly afterwards he transmitted him the circular orders for placing the army under the new system, but Suwarrow, attached to the old customs, and well acquainted with the character of the Russian troops, instead of acting in conformity with the instructions of the emperor, turned them off with a hon mot*, which was rapidly spread amongst the troops, and converted into the burden of a song, with a sort of reckless joyousness, somewhat similar to the gaiety of the French soldier. This snatch of dangerous pleasantry furnished Paul with the ex- cuse he desired for getting rid of Suwarrow, whom he immediately dismissed, and appointed general Ro- samberg, an obscure officer, who possessed no other merit than that of being an active promoter of the new discipline, to supersede him.
