To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But neither of them had any power ; all was vested in Concini, who was made Marquis d'Ancre, then Governor of Amiens, and Marshal of France, though utterly devoid of aU military experience ; and whose ambition at last rose so high, that he actually demanded the daughter of the Count de Soissons, the second prince of the blood, in marriage for his son, extorting a consent to so unequal a match from the queen herself, though subsequently she revoked it, and compelled him to renounce the project.
...One party, and one alone, the Huguenots, profited by the queen's resolution to maintain the Concinis in the position to which she had raised them. Not that queen or favourite had any liking for them, but because Marie, seeing how generally the nobles of the kingdom were offended at her preference of a foreigner, was careful not to give the Huguenot chiefs, who were still a large, and at all times a most powerful body, any additional grounds of discontent ; being the more careful on the subject because she knew that the CONCILIATOEY POLICY OF THE QUEEN.
