To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His custom of receiving from all persons any in- formation that might enrich his kingdom, caused him to learn that there were in various places in France very good gold, silver, copper, and lead mines; and that if they were worked, there would be no need to buy from strangers. He considered also that though no great profit might accrue from working them, yet many idle persons might be employed ; and likewise that those criminals whose offence did not merit death might be condemned for so many y...ears to work in them. He therefore made an Act which renewed the ancient orders concerning the officers, directors, and workers of mines ; and they began to work in the Pyrenees, where it is most certain that there formerly was gold, and that there still is. Had they continued this labour, they might, to all appearance, have gained notable advan- tages ; but either through the negligence of the over- seers or the impatience of the French, who become discouraged with everything that does not at once fulfil their desires, this work was discontinued.
