求英语小说双城记里一句话的解释
It was the year of Our Lord one thousand seven hundred and seventy-five.Spiritual revelations were conceded to England at that favoured period,as at this.这里 conceded to england是怎么翻译,as at this是指什么

concede to = be defeated by,被...打败/征服,给...让步
as at this中as表示”正如“,this指代文中提到的另一个period(前文中肯定有对比),和以前那个favoured period很相似的.
