Hi Tom
Your sentence is a difficult one. Where did it come from? Shakespeare maybe? 
Have you tried taking it apart (eliminating pieces of it temporarily) in order to discover the “core sentence”? I think this is something you ought to practice.

If truth be told, so help me God! I am going to have a whack at it. :shock:
Please tell me how much I am correct in my understanding of the quote.
“Even if a fox does not learn any tricks from its ancestors(parents), it is going to be (as) cunning and deceiving (as them) because it runs in its blood. Same is the case with treason!It does not have to be taught because it is something one is born with.”

Hi Tom
That sounds like a pretty good whack to me!
