To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Whilst England and Prussia were dealing their blows against France from the outside, movements hostile to the pretensions and power of the Monarchy were developing in the country itself, and it is the purpose of this and the following chapter to examine these. We shall see how after the lapse of nearly a hundred years the Parlements began to assert their privileges and attack those of the Crown : we shall see the throne weakened by an attack on the Church, which achieved its greatest success in... the overthrow of the Jesuit order : we shall see the whole current of opinion and thought taking a direction hostile to established institutions ; Digitized by Google Xix.] Rise of Opposition to the Absolute Monarchy, 233 and in face of all these different dangers we may observe how the Government exhibited a pitiful spectacle of misrule in every directi9n, while the personal character of the King and the conduct of his Court provoked attack and made enthusiastic loyalty impossible. It is to this last-mentioned topic that we will turn first.
