To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

He was at first treated with every consideration by both king and Pontiff: various discussions took place between Clement and himself, both as to the advisa- bility of a Crusade, and also as to a projected union of the two Orders ; indeed, Clement was so urgent on this latter point, that it may be doubted whether he did not trust, by some such amalgamation in which the Templars might lose all individuality and become merged into the Order of the Hospital, to avoid pro- ceeding to those extremit...ies against them which the ruthless Philip contemplated, and to the execution of which, by his promises to that monarch, he stood pledged. Be this as it may, Molay steadfastly rejected the proposal, and in a lengthy document, which history has preserved, he adduced numerous arguments in sup- port of his opposition to the measure. From this moment his fate was sealed ; if the Pope had intended his proposal as a compromise whereby the lives and property of the Order might be preserved, the antago- 192 A HISTORY OF nism of Molay had caused its failure, and from that moment he determined to let matters take their course.
