What reading level is Bolingbroke And Walpole book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
» Stanhope, ii. 187.
3 As to whom see note in Stanhope, p. 191.
4 Letter of the elder Horace Walpole, in Coxe's memoir of him, i. 328.
WALPOLE'S FOREIGN POLICY 171 But now he requested that the secret emissary should be politely dismissed ; and not only was this done, but the queen wrote to the Empress, positively intimating that England would not engage in the war. And, with a reinforced opposition loudly calling upon him to help the old ally against a combination of France and Spain, he broug...ht the war to an end by sheer diplomatic skill.
He was perfectly impartial. The Emperor having threatened to marry one of his archduchesses to Don Carlos, Walpole took care to let the French Government know of that risk, which might involve another com- bination of Spain and the Empire. At the same time, he quietly informed Madrid that secret communications were going on between Versailles and Vienna, Fleury in point of fact being in secret communication with every- body. As Lord Morley observes, " The scene is not particularly edifying to those who hope that politics are a branch of morals." But, as he recognizes, the ethic which plays a diplomatic game to end a war is sounder than that which would stand aloof and let it flame.
