To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
of infantry and two regiments of eavahy, should remain with Soltikoff.
The march of the Russians towards Saxony was so slow and cautious as to drive Loudon nearly wild with vexation.
Many splendid opportunities for overwhelming the inferior army of the Prussians were thrown away. At last, in reply to the repeated instances of Loudon, Soltikoffi agreed to seize one which presented itself, of attacking Prince Henry in flank and rear. With this view he marched, on the 30th of August, to Lieberose.... Frederic, who divined his plans, hastened to thwart it by marching after the Russians, and taking up (31st of August) a position at Waldau, in their rear. Encamped here, he forced the combined army of the enemy to remain halted, expecting an attack, but never attacked, from the 1st to the 15th of September.
The Reich's-army, meanwhile, had been busily engaged in Saxony ; had recovered Leipsig, "Wittenberg, Torgau, and, 4th of September, Dresden itself. Any other generals but Daun and Soltikoff would have now finished the war ; but Fortune is kind only to those who will grasp her favours ; she withdraws those favours from those whose over-caution causes them to hesitate to undertake the smallest risk.
