To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Imperialists, who had the strongest interest to judge unfavourably her conduct, could not deny that she behaved with the ' greatest prudence ' and firmness. The Comuneros, whose plans she did not favour, had no interest to praise her, and yet they could not conceal that she was an equal, or surpassed her mother in intelligence and statesmanship. She was contrasted by them with her son the Emperor. ' The Queen is wise, and understands affairs of State, and yet she refuses to sign (laws, etc.... ), whilst the Emperor knows nothing of business, 176 GUSTAVE BERGENKOTII : and yet he signs. ' That was then a common saying in Spain. But we are not obliged to follow the opinion of either party. Her answers to the Comuneros are recorded almost word by word, and we can judge of her behaviour for ourselves. She was told that by putting her signature to a single proclamation, the whole power of her persecu- tors would be scattered to the winds. She knew that it was true, for of the three Viceroys who represented Charles in Spain, two were ready to make common cause with her, or rather to submit to her as their rightful Sovereign, and the third, the Cardinal Adrian, was preparing his flight to Flanders.
