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

Pizarro took a prominent part in almost all the important enterprises in America. He was the companion of Nunez de Balboa and of Hernan Cortes; and. After having served witli distinction under the most celebrated leaders. He became himself a leader equally renowned. Spain owed to him the discovery and conquest of Peru. Perhaps in no page of the history of America — not even in the books which narrate the romantic and almost incredible achievements of the conquerors of Mexico — shall we find her...oism more magnanimous and more ex- traordinary than the determination formed by Pizarro and thirteen * Zarate. — Gomara. — Vega, &c.
CONQUEST OF PERU. 127 others, who, though worn out with fatigue, diseases and disap- pointments, resolutely preferred to remain in a desert island, than to abandon the enterprise which they had undertaken.
But, however great may have been the military virtues of Fran- cis Pizarro — however extensive and varied the series of his ser- vices — however severe the trials he sustained in a long life devoted to danger, toil, and hardship in the cause of discovery, — such multifarious merits lose a great portion of their claims to public admiration from the acts of injustice, rapine, and cruelty, by which his deeds were deeply coloured.
