To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Al- though sometimes such disorders gave cause for laughter, yet there was more often reason for weeping to see so large a number of people carrying arms who deserve, because of their bad actions, the name of bandit rather than that of soldier." ^ The Admiral's efforts were impeded not only by the bad military custom of allowing soldiers pillage as part of their wages, but also because of his lack of money to pay his German auxiliaries. It is a commentary on the effect of war — even war which h...e had tried at the beginning to make worthy of being called a war for the word of God — that in four months the Admiral should write to his brother and suggest, as a means of recruiting mercenaries in Germany, to promise them "the sack of Paris," because "we do not treat the Papists so badly as their beastly cruelty de- serves." ^ There was one form of disorder in particular which the Huguenot captains were powerless to check — ^iconoclasm. The impulse to this seemed to be with many of the Hugue- not soldiers almost an obsession.
