To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Simultaneously with the descent of the French troops upon Italy, hostilities had broken out upon the Flemish border. The pains of theEmperor in covering the smouldering embers of national animosities soprecipitately, and with a view rather to scenic effect than to adeliberate and well-considered result, were thus set at nought, andwithin a year from the day of his abdication, hostilities were reopenedfrom the Tiber to the German Ocean. The blame of first violating thetruce of Vaucelles was laid... by each party upon the other with equaljustice, for there can be but little doubt that the reproach justlybelonged to both. Both had been equally faithless in their professions ofamity. Both were equally responsible for the scenes of war, plunder, andmisery, which again were desolating the fairest regions of Christendom.
At the time when the French court had resolved to concede to the wishesof the Caraffa family, Admiral Coligny, who had been appointed governorof Picardy, had received orders to make a foray upon the frontier ofFlanders.
