To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
War broke out in the following month. At first it was an unimportant conflict; but it spread and grew into a thirty years' bloody struggle between Romanism and Protestantism.
In March of 1619 the princes of the Empire tried to efiect a reconciliation. The attempt failed ; and on the twentieth of the same month Matthias died.
Ferdinand the Second was now King. He too began to favor peace. He wrote to Bohemia, reappointed the Regents, promised to govern in accordance with the pledges given at his... coronation, and added, that he would do everj'thing in his power to restore the tranquility of the kingdom. This would have been the time for the Protestants to come to terms.
That they refused to do so, was unfortunate, and yet the natural consequence of his past course. Who will blame them for declaring their utter want of confidence in him, and their solemn belief that even his oaths were untrustworthy ? As long as Matthias lived, they remained loyal and hoped for an eventual understanding. But Ferdinand's accession to the throne undermined their loyalty and blighted such hopes.
