To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sir Robert Cecil aflBirmed, that in ten years Ireland cost her three millions four hundred thousand pounds*. She gave the Earl of Essex a present of thirty thousand pounds, upon his departure for the government of that kingdom"".
Lord Burleigh computed, that the value of the gifts conferred on that favourite amounted to three hundred thousand pounds; a sum which, though probably ex- aggerated, is a proof of her strong affection towards him ! It was a common sajring during this reign, The queen ...pays hountifuUtfy thotigh she rewards sparingly"^.
It is difficult to compute exactly the queen's ordinary revenue, but it certainly fell much short of five hundred thousand pounds a-year^ In the year 1590, she raised the customs from fourteen thousand pounds a-year to fifty thousand, and obliged Sir Thomas Smith, who had farmed them, to refund some of his former profits ^ This improvement of the revenue was owing to the sugges- tions of one Caermarthen, and was opposed by Burleigh, Leicester, and Walsingham ; but the queen's perse- verance overcame all their opposition.
