To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
De Metternich, whose merit it had always been to maintain, whilst his spirit was far from being a passionless one, a policy which no passion was allowed to sway, continued to adhere with even increasing firmness to the plan he had adopted of exhausting every attempt at arbitration, before passing from the mediatorial attitude to one of hostility ; and this course, whilst it was well fitted to preserve from any slur the honour of the Emperor Francis, as well in his imperial as in his paternal ch...aracter, had the advantage, moreover, of procuring for Austria the time of which she had need for the purpose of arming, and, above all, of preserving the possibility of a peaceable arrangement.
M. De Metternich's profound political foresight, rendered him anxious to avoid not only the danger of seeing the con- tending parties, weary of his protracted hesitations, settle their disputes at the expense of Austria, but also the danger of defeat before the arms of France, a possibility which he still greatly dreaded, in spite of the events of the preceding year ; and for these reasons, therefore, he was desirous of holding Prussia and Russia with one hand in such a manner that they might not escape him, whilst with the other, drawing Napoleon to the acceptance of a peace such as the other European powers would accept.
