 | | Fields' top candidate, the earl, was a nobleman who studied at Cambridge and Oxford, studied law at Gray's Inn, traveled extensively throughout Europe, spoke fluent French and Italian, had military and naval experience, was familiar with the "aristocratic sports," wrote poetry using iambic pentameter like Shakespeare and wrote plays that were never performed in public. |
