Excerpt from The Huguenots: Their Settlements, Churches, and Industries in England and Ireland The geographical position of Britain has, from the ear liest times, rendered it a country of refuge. Fronting Eu rope, yet separated from it by a deep sea-moat, the pro scribed of other lands have by turns sought the protection of the island fortress, and made it their-home. To the country of the Britons the Saxons brought their industry, the Northmen their energy, and the Flemings and French their skill and spirit of liberty; and out of the whole has come the English nation.
