This little book leans much, as every modern work on the subject must do, upon Mr. Richard Simpson’s
monograph1: Edmund Campion, Jesuit Protomartyr of England. In many points supplementing or contradicting that splendid though
biased2 narrative3, the present writer has gratefully taken advantage of the researches of the
Rev4. John Hungerford
Pollen5, S.J. It may also be useful to state that the contemporary
citations6, when not otherwise
specified7, are from two
invaluable8 witnesses, Parsons and Allen. The translated passages have been compared with the originals, and sometimes newly rendered.
