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

Many of them had either already joined the new sect, or were secretly incHned to it; and even those who were zealous Roman Catholics had po- litical or private grounds enough to set them against the decrees of Trent and the Inquisition. All, in fine, felt the call of vanity sufficiently powerful, not to allow the only moment to escape them in which they might pos- sibly make some figure in the republic.
But much as might be expected from the cooperation of these men in a body, it would have bee
...n futile and ridiculous to build any hopes on any one of them singly ; and the great difficulty was to effect a union among them. Even to bring them together, some un- usual occurrence was necessary ; and fortunately, such an incident presented itself. The nuptials of Baron Montigny, one of the Belgian nobles, as also those of the Prince Alexander of Parma, which took place about this time in Brussels, assembled in that town a great number of the Belgian nobles. On this occasion, rela- tions met relations ; new friendships were formed and old renewed ; and while the distress of the country was the topic of conversation, wine and mirth unlocked lips and hearts ; hints were dropped of union among themselves, and of an alliance with foreign powers.
