Phipps' Defence of Francis V, Duke of Modena The Duke was only directing the application to those persons of a law which existed before the offences were committed, and was ordering that a measure should be applied to them individually, to which all persons in their case were liable by the law as it had already stood for twenty years. The convictions of the Duke upon these points were shared by the Modenese public, who were incessantly complaining of the impunity of crime, of the inertness, the slowness, and the inefficiency of the judges, and of the evil influence of their laxity upon public morality. Modena, like the majority of continental countries, did not and could not offer the outlets which England so exceptionally affords to men who have mistaken their walk in life, and accordingly these superfluous Doctors of Laws were forced to remain face to face starving or struggling for each other's bread. www.jacobite.ca /documents/18610307a.htm
