Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The English Scholar's Library of Old and Modern Works
Here is nothing more heart-rending than judicial murder for ecclesiastical opinions when men of the highest personal integrity and spotless citizenship come to their end unrighteously, either by long imprisonment or by swift execution. It is one of the glories of Queen victoria's reign, that no one has suffered therein the extreme penalty of the law, for any simple political offence much more.
