No, it defaults to whatever you have your own browser set to use as ..
well .. as its default font.

"face=roman" would only work if you have a font on your computer
explicitly named "roman".

See your browser's options. All modern browsers have the ability to set
default fonts (and sizes). In Firefox, the settings are located at:
Tools > Options > Content tab
"Fonts & Colors" > "Default font:"
and more using the: [ Advanced ] button

Cannot?

<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">
The quick brown fox <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">jumped
over</span> the lazy dog's back.
</p>

BTW, you should be using modern markup instead of the 1990's style
<font face="something">. Learn CSS, too.
