Stukley has meanwhile moved to Rome, where he has found favor with Pius, who had excommunicated Elizabeth earlier in 1571.

Under Don John, he had been given the command of three galleys at the Battle of Lepanto, and has shown great valor.

This crucial victory for the Holy League over the Ottoman Empire of Selim II allows Spain to devote more resources to its campaigns in northern Europe.

The illustrious Italian composer Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, although he has received invitations to serve the emperor Maximilian II and Guglielmo, Duke of Mantua, has remained in Rome, and in 1571 returns to the Julian Chapel as director of music.
