## Summary

ENGLISH SPY, (_In a serious musing attitude_)—I have watched this game from its beginning, when Mary married Philip. With all the might of Spain and Rome to back her she failed to crush a seeming helpless girl. The young Nobility, the proud hold chivalry of England took her part! On high paced steeds they rode her escort, or thronged her house with levies which shamed the deserted Court. Where’er she moved abroad, the roaring multitude surged round her, unbonneted to their idol as she passed. I saw that Church and Spain must lose! Elizabeth would be Queen at last! (_He walks a few steps with a satisfied air_.) When Mary’s reign was closed, what shouts of joy broke from emancipated London!...
