To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As to foreign affairs, Paul's early policy was peaceful. He discontinued the levying of recruits in his mother's manner — 13° HISTORY OF RUSSIA.
that is, in the proportion of three men to every five hundred souls. He withdrew his forces from Persia, and left Georgia to its own levies. To the Poles he even showed some pity, re- called prisoners from Siberia, transferred King Stanislas from Grodno to St. Petersburg, visited Kosciuszko at Schliisselburg, and set him, with the other captives, at li...berty. He bade Koly- tchef. Envoy Extraordinary at Berlin, tell the King of Prussia that he was neither for conquest nor aggrandizement. He dictated a circular to Ostermann, which was to be communicated to foreign Powers, in which he declared that Russia, and Russia alone, had been engaged in ceaseless wars since 1756 ; that these forty years of war had exhausted the nation ; that the humanity of the Emperor did not allow him to refuse his beloved subjects the peace for which they sighed ; that nevertheless, though for these reasons the Russian army would take no part in the contest with France, " the Emperor would remain as closely as ever united with his allies, and oppose by all possible means the progress of the mad French republic, which threatened Europe with total ruin, by the destruction of her laws, privileges, property, religion, and manners." He refused all armed assist- ance to Austria, then alarmed by Bonaparte's victories in Italy ; he recalled the vessels sent by Catherine to join the English fleet, to blockade the coasts of France and Holland.
