To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Loyalty was a subject which could be well handled in those days and to those men ; and the President impresses upon Pizarro that the man who is unfaithful to his Sovereign not only loses his fame^ but disgraces his lineage. If this letter were to be read aloud^ the President knew well the effect that it would produce upon the Hidalgos in Pizarro's camp. He then turns to prudential considerations; and^ in dilating upon the power of the Emperor, shows how the Grand Turk had not been able to withs...tand it. Indeed^ in his retreat from Vienna, that potentate, finding himself no match for Charles the Fifth, had sacrificed thousands of horsemen in order to cover his retreat. Again ; Pizarro must not suppose because he had found allies to assist him against the Viceroy, who was hated and feared by many persons, that the same alliances would hold good now.^ The President then gives a very skilful turn to the fact that no new armies had been sent out by Charles ; namely^ . in order that there might not be more Spaniards sent to that country than were necessary, so that it might not be destroyed.
