To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Portugal, however, refused to carry him thither, although Louis XIV asked it as a special favor. In 1658 when Pallu attempted to go out at his own risk he reached not Cochin-China but Siam. He was back again in France in 1665, begging protection against the Portuguese, who were arresting his priests and putting them in jail at Goa and Macao. In 1674 he was shipwrecked in the Philippines and carried off a prisoner to Spain, and was liberated only by the united efforts of the Pope and Louis XIV.
...He set sail again, but was driven ashore on the Island of Formosa and never reached Tonkin.
Meantime the Jesuits had not forgotten Francis Xavier's dream about China. The Dominican Caspar de la Cruz had found his way through its closed gates, four years after Xavier expired on the island opposite Canton, but he was promptly expelled. It was only in 1 581, fully thirty-six years subsequent to the attempt of de la Cruz, that the Jesuits finally succeeded. All that time they had been waiting at Macao, — a settle- ment granted to the Portuguese in return for the assistance given to China in beating off a fleet of plundering sea-rovers.
