To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' Max handed him a penny, saying, ' Take this, my good man, and if all your brothers give you as much, you will be richer than I. ' It may be that Max did not have much money with him at the time; I am sure he did not if it was before his marriage, for nearly all his wealth came from Bur- gundy and Flanders. " " Ha! ha!" laughed the seneschal, turning to the housekeeper. " Where would your great King of the Romans be without my country? Even a king with no money is of little consequence. " "Pra...y, pray, good Sir Fool, " said the house- keeper, ignoring this remark, " keep the secret from her Highness, and let no one know that you are aware of the coming of the archduke. Our mas- ter would be seriously displeased if he knew that we had revealed the fact that the royal visitor is expected. " " Do not be alarmed, " replied Le Glorieux; " I shall be as silent as an owl in daytime, for I, too, 139 THE COURT JESTER want my little mistress to have the pleasure of a surprise. " The end of the sentence was almost drowned by the striking of the clock, and the -fool continued, raising his voice, " I do not see why it is, but it seems to me that every time I want to say anything that clock wants to strike at that partic- ular minute!' " Oh, it is late, it is late, " cried the housekeeper, " and we must hurry.
