To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was by far the best that the country enjoyed for nearly another century. It would be monstrous, indeed, to compare with her firm but yet not ungentle nor ungenerous sway, in its combined action and effect upon the happiness and prosperity of the kingdom at home and upon its respectability abroad, any succeeding government down to the Revolution of 1688. The memory or tradition of her time, accordingly, lived in the hearts and in the speech of the people for all that century as of a golden ag...e compared with any days that had since been known. Yet there can be no doubt that in the later years of her reign almost everybody had come to be tired of its lasting so long. James's acces- sion was, rather for this reason than for any distinct anticipations which had been inspired by what was known of himself, one of the most popular in our annals, almost as much so as that of his grandson Charles II. , which also it resembled in the general satisfaction being very short-lived. But to particular individuals it proved a real morning of a new day.
