To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

So calmly ignoring these parliamentary defeats, he con- tinued year after year to levy the illegal taxes in spite of the protests of the liberals. Prussia had no Supreme Court to stay such encroachment. To turn people from this defiance of the constitution, Bis- marck then used the politician's old expedient — the 6 recourse to a strong foreign policy. This led to the aggressions upon Denmark in 1864 to 1866, by which Prussia took Schleswig Holstein and rounded off her Baltic territory. Then pa...rliament faced about, and, in the triumph of conquest proceeded to ratify the taxes already imposed and paid. We know the short and decisive war waged against the Austrian power.
And twenty years after has come out to the world the cynical revelation how the alteration of the Ems' dispatch, which Bismarck and Molke contrived, adroitly precipitated a declaration of war from France, in which neutrals might see Prussia as the country attacked.
For nearly fifty years, we adherents of the Vir- ginia idea, have had before us the impressive spectacles of the growth and prosperity of Germanic institutions working on lines laid down and minutely dictated by the sovereign proclaiming a divine right which it became impious for the subject to question.
