To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The colonists, therefore, did not gain much by their spiritual ambassador: their lay represen- tatives, however, equally implicated in the result with themselves, were staunch and busy. On receiving the answer from the Junta, the King's ministers requested the Junta to draw up a body of laws in conformity with the principles which they had affirmed in their decision; but this the Junta were un- willing to do, saying that they had laid down the basis for legislation, and that, with respect to th...e particular laws which would be requisite, they had only to observe that the more closely such laws could be adapted to this basis the better. Such, at least, was the line taken by the unofficial members of the Junta. Meanwhile, whether on account of the solicitations of Father Antonio, or on account of the book of Father Mathias, which I imagine was published at this time, the King does not appear to have been satisfied with the principles laid down by the Junta, or at any rate } he was willing that the question should be further considered; for he asked an opinion in writing from the Licentiate Gregorio, who was one of the Junta, and also from Bernardo de Mesa, both of them king's preachers.
