To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Could we, by our persuasions alone, arm a number of powers in the north, not before connected in the /ilan, and who would at- tend solely to the protection of 7ieutral trade. , this might be an armed neutrality worthy of attention ; but the north affords no such hopes. To join it therefore at present, is only to throiv aivay our neutrality, under a specious name, and join in labour- ing for the downfal of England. 81 Combinations under the patronage of Russia are indeed sel- dom lasting. In Feb...ruary, 1780, during our revolutionary war, arose the ffimed armed neutrality again&t England, headed by Catharine of Russia, (who once had acted under a different sys- tem. ) But, though various belligerents gave weight to it, Eng- land yielded to it nothing that was permanent ; and all but its name expired at the peace of 1 782—3. In 1793 the same Catharine took the lead in an extensive combination against the commerce and supplies oi Fraiicc ; which nevertheless closed before the war ended. Her son Paul bore a part afterwards in the military operations against France ; and under his orders Suwarrow entered Italy.
