To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His stud then was very limited, consisting chiefly of Merry Traveller, with one or two young ones ; and one of his first tastes of the pleasure of victory was when Merry Traveller beat Sir John Lade's Medlycut, over Sir Harry Featherstone's course at Up Park, in Sussex. In the following year very large additions were made by the Prince to his stud, and by the spring of 1 786 he had no fewer than twenty-five animals in training at New- market. At the end of this year his pecuniary em- barrassmen...ts led him to adopt measures of retrench- ment, which circumstances rendered unavoidable.
It was a hard blow to him; but, as an earnest of future economy, he determined on the sale of his stud. In him love of racing and race-horses was the ruling passion; and two years afterwards, his debts being paid, and his income increased by the generosity or justice of the House of Commons, he returned to the enjoyment of his favourite pursuit on a scale of Royal magnificence. From the re- appearance of the purple jacket in 1788, the Prince's success on the Turf was considerable, his stable car- rying off a fair share of the prizes, and continuing to do so until his second retirement, in 1791, after the unfortunate Escape affair at Newmarket.
