To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The tracing of all this terrible history is done in a way which is worthy of ENGLISH LITERATURE. 63 the great days of Grecian tragedy. A mighty king surrounded by all the cir- cumstances which make royalty so much an object of desire to men, being led along those high paths which are so dangerous to travel; and failing to choose the best things, and then gradu- ally descending into ruin and despair; all these things are handled by one who shows that he is a master of his art. Gaveston, though w...holly destitute of any qualifications of statesmanship, yet was of a gentle family and courtly man- ners. No favorite ever knew better bow to manage a weak master; and to pre- serve his influence over him. We shall see that he understood human na- ture and that he had learned how to employ it for all the purposes with which thoroughly selfish courtiers learn it. Gaveston had returned from France. The king, we know, had to go over there not only to espouse Isabella, to whom he had long been engaged, but for the purpose of paying the accustomed hom- age to the king of France for the Duchy of Guienne, which, though a French province, belonged to the English 64 LECTURES ON LITERATURE.
