To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' A scheme, said to be for the restoration of James by a constitutional mode of procedure, was much talked of this year. I do not for a moment l)elieve that Marll)orough and the others who devised it had the least intention of using it for that purpose, although they told James they had. But they meant to use it for the purpose of compelling William to govern England exclusively hj Englishmen on English lines and for exclusively English objects. The national hatred of foreigners was proverbial,... and Marl- borough as a soldier had special reasons for detesting them, as William confided almost every important com- mand to his own countrymen. In all military society Marlborough was loud in denunciations of this policy, and impressed upon his hearers that it destroyed their prospects. His scheme was to take advantage of this national feeling and to move an address in Parliament requesting the King to dismiss all foreigners from the public service, and to send out of England all the Dutch troops — about 5, 000 men — he still retained there.
