To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In good time he married a young lady of noble blood and di- stinguished beauty, and became the happy father of a lovel}?^ family.
Mavrocordato, as observed before, had destined his son to run the perilous race of ambition ; and, had he never known what it was to fear the loss of that darling son, would with difficulty have been diverted from his vain-glorious purpose. But while Spiridion's fate hung suspended between life and death, his father too strongly felt the blessing of his existence and... the value of his happiness, any longer to stake them against perilous honours, difficult to at- tain, and unsubstantial when possessed. His desires became sobered, and his views less aspiring: he determined to prefer the certainty of his son's bliss, to the probable misery of his grandeur ; and vowed, so Heaven but left him his child, never more to abuse a father's authority, by goading him on to dangerous distinctions. Mavrocordato thus forfeited, indeed, the advantage of boasting, like the Giccas, the Calli- mackis and others, that their nearest of kin had been bowstringed on a throne ; — but this misfortune he bore with becoming resignation.
