To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Both were at fault. Charles, however, acted with a single eye to the interests of his country ; the Com- mons had a whole-souled devotion to their own. When an irresistible force meets an immovable rock, something is apt to hap- pen, and happen many things did. John Richard Green, in his distorted view of this reign, glorified the Puritans, who were gradually coming to the front in Parlia- ment. Macaulay, however, takes the saner view, in giving as a reason for the Puritans' dislike of bear-bai...ting, not the pain suffered by the bear, but the pleasure felt by the on- lookers. The first twenty years of the reign had many crowded hours. Events marched Accession of King Charles I 37 rapidly, and there was no pause in the procession of important happenings. The Royal Marriage Alliance with France had proved a stumbling-block to Spain. Neither Gondomar nor Philip proved a match for Richelieu the Master Diplomat. Later, indeed, Cromwell's mistaken foreign policy so bitterly analysed by Bolingbroke in strengthening the French power has been strongly criticized by later writers.
