Legends of the conquest of Spain, Legend of Count Julian and His Family., sentence 71

These latter the sagacious reader will admit or reject, according to the measure of his faith and judgment; always remembering, that in dark and eventful times, like those in question, involving the destinies of nations, the downfall of kingdoms, and the crimes of rulers and mighty men, the hand of fate is sometimes strangely visible, and confounds the wisdom of the worldly wise, by intimations and portents above the ordinary course of things.

Who acts: These, sagacious reader, crimes · What happens: latter, admit, reject, accord, remember, involve · To what, where: measure, those, question, destinies, wisdom, faith
