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


The king thought it good counsel; and, with the other's help, climbed into the tree; and then helped his companion to ascend after him; where they sat all that day, and securely saw many who came purposely into the wood to look after them, and heard all their discourse, how they would use the king himself if they could take him. This wood was either in or upon the borders of Staffordshire; and though there was a highway near one side of it, where the king had entered into it, yet it was large,
...and all other sides of it opened amongst enclo- sures, and it pleased God that Careless was not unac- quainted with the neighbour villages; and it was part of the king's good fortune, that this gentleman, by being a Roman Catholic, was acquainted with those of that profession of all degrees, who had the best opportunities of concealing him; for it must never be denied, that some of that faith had a very great share in his majesty's preservation.
( B 454 ) O Il6 ENGLISH HISTORIANS The day being spent in the tree, it was not in the king's power to forget that he had Hved two days with eating very Httle, and two nights with as Httle sleep; so that, when the night came, he was wilHng to make some provision for both : and he resolved, with the advice and assistance of his companion, to leave his blessed tree; and when the night was dark, they walked through the wood into those enclosures which were farthest from any highway, and making a shift to get over hedges and ditches, after walking at least eight or nine miles, which were the more grievous to the king by the weight of his boots (for he could not put them off, when he cut oif his hair, for want of shoes), before morning they came to a poor cottage, the owner whereof being a Roman Catholic, was known to Careless.
