To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Now in none of the southern armies is the discipUne at all on a par with that of the Prussians, and the Bavarian army has always enjoyed an unenviable reputation for pillage and devastation. There is no doubt, therefore, that from the very beginning of the war there has been pillaging on a large scale by a portion of the German troops, all of whom, be it remembered, have invariably by Frenchmen, and even by many Englishmen, been de- scribed as " Prussians." ' As regards the bona fide Prussians,... after examining much contradictory evidence I have come to the conclusion that in some parts of France, and under some commanders, especially Manteuffel, their discipline has greatly deterio- rated, and that many cases of pillage of a bad kind could be brought home to them, but that these still form the exception to the rule, and that it can be safely asserted that where the inhabitants have not fled and have made it possible for the troops to enter into orderly relations with them, their conduct has been exemplary and far above that of ordinary armies, — the requisitioning excepted, but for this they are not responsible.
