Excerpt from Fitz of Fitz-Ford, Vol. 3 of 3: A Legend of Devon The villainy you teach me, I will execute, and it shall go hard, but I will better the instruction. Shakspeare. Although it is not our intention in these pages to intrude on the province of the local historian in regard to public events, and far less to treat of those circumstances which render so remarkable the reign of Elizabeth, yet, in order that our reader may fully estimate the various causes that tended to exasperate a mind so bigotted and vindictive as that of Standwich, it becomes absolutely necessary we should say a few words respecting the state of the party to which he belonged, as it stood at this time in England, a party supported, as it is well known, by Spain, Rome, and indeed by all the papal alliances of Europe.
