To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Consequence of the impracticable and all-absorbing ambition of the Duke. He would allow no man of commanding ability to share the government with him ; and yet unassisted, he was utterly unable to stand. A compromise was at last effected with Mr. Fox, who was appointed Secretary of State, yet without the powers which usually belonged to that office — without the control of the secret service money ; and without being informed what use was to be made of that detestable fund by those who actually... controlled it. Thus hampered, it was impossible for even Mr. Fox to dis- charge his duties so as to secure the permanency of the admin- istration ; and after a few days of imbecile and mortifying effort he resigned.
Pitt was too bold and dangerous an ally to be placed by the Duke of Newcastle in a position of great prominence in the cabinet, for in that case the latter well knew he would soon himself become a cypher. Pitt was therefore cautiously passed by. At length Mr. Legge was made Chancellor of the Excheq- uer, and the seals were consigned to Sir Thomas Robinson, together with the lead in the House of Commons.
