To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such a subsidy, it was thought, might be disguised under the name of a compensation for the littleprincipality of Orange, which Lewis had long been desirous to purchaseeven at a fancy price. A despatch was drawn up containing a paragraph bywhich Tallard was to be apprised of his master's views, and instructednot to hazard any distinct proposition, but to try the effect ofcautious and delicate insinuations, and, if possible, to draw William onto speak first. This paragraph was, on second thought...s, cancelled;but that it should ever have been written must be considered a mostsignificant circumstance.
It may with confidence be affirmed that William would never have stoopedto be the pensioner of France; but it was with difficulty that hewas, at this conjuncture, dissuaded from throwing up the government ofEngland. When first he threw out hints about retiring to the Continent, his ministers imagined that he was only trying to frighten them intomaking a desperate effort to obtain for him an efficient army.
