blow_n m._n do_v thou_o take_v this_o to_o be_v well_o to_o protect_v those_o who_o attempt_v the_o destruction_n of_o the_o pontificial_a majesty_n p._n if_o the_o pope_n seek_v to_o destroy_v the_o majesty_n of_o the_o prince_n why_o shall_v not_o the_o prince_n be_v permit_v to_o procure_v the_o mortification_n of_o the_o majesty_n of_o the_o pope_n we_o must_v distinguish_v between_o mortification_n and_o destruction_n for_o the_o french_a and_o the_o venetian_n endeavour_v only_o the_o mortification_n but_o not_o the_o destruction_n of_o the_o pontificial_a greatness_n and_o in_o truth_n they_o much_o more_o benefit_n the_o church_n than_o the_o other_o prince_n do_v who_o will_v destroy_v the_o whole_a world_n to_o please_v the_o pope_n but_o when_o the_o concern_n be_v for_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n than_o the_o king_n of_o france_n and_o the_o republic_n of_o venice_n be_v more_o zealous_a than_o the_o spaniard_n who_o esteem_v themselves_o so_o catholical_a but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n when_o the_o pope_n interest_n be_v upon_o the_o board_n than_o the_o spaniard_n be_v most_o zealous_a and_o the_o french_a and_o the_o venetian_n if_o they_o do_v not_o stand_v out_o be_v at_o least_o content_a with_o a_o natural_a heat_n and_o upon_o this_o account_n because_o the_o zeal_n of_o the_o spaniard_n look_v more_o to_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o pope_n than_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o zeal_n of_o the_o other_o regard_n much_o more_o the_o benefit_n of_o the_o church_n than_o that_o of_o the_o pope_n m._n these_o reason_n of_o thou_o penetrate_v my_o heart_n and_o make_v i_o think_v the_o spaniard_n great_a catholic_n for_o the_o pope_n and_o great_a heretic_n to_o the_o church_n and_o the_o french_a and_o venetian_n great_a catholic_n for_o the_o church_n and_o a_o little_a heretical_a towards_o the_o pope_n p._n very_o right_a but_o now_o to_o return_v to_o our_o purpose_n after_o i_o have_v observe_v all_o thing_n without_o my_o curiosity_n go_v on_o to_o see_v every_o thing_n within_o but_o i_o dare_v not_o do_v it_o though_o a_o gate_n present_v itself_o just_a before_o my_o eye_n where_o be_v a_o ascent_n of_o three_o or_o four_o step_n but_o i_o wait_v to_o have_v the_o venerable_a person_n who_o conduct_v i_o to_o show_v i_o the_o way_n which_o he_o do_v by_o go_v in_o first_o without_o much_o ceremony_n as_o soon_o as_o we_o enter_v that_o great_a hall_n we_o see_v a_o multitude_n of_o pope_n and_o every_o one_o set_v upon_o a_o seat_n fix_v to_o the_o wall_n i_o who_o know_v the_o great_a reverence_n that_o be_v use_v in_o the_o vatican_n of_o rome_n walk_v very_o soft_o my_o knee_n almost_o tremble_v nay_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o more_o i_o sneak_v behind_o a_o pillar_n to_o show_v my_o great_a reverence_n to_o the_o place_n which_o be_v observe_v by_o my_o good_a friend_n who_o go_v up_o and_o down_o so_o bold_o that_o he_o begin_v to_o laugh_v and_o draw_v near_o to_o i_o say_v thus_o thou_o savour_v pasquin_n too_o much_o of_o a_o citizen_n of_o rome_n that_o be_v to_o say_v be_v but_o ill_o instruct_v in_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o vatican_n and_o indeed_o the_o roman_n be_v like_o fish_n which_o live_v in_o the_o salt_n water_n yet_o be_v themselves_o insipid_a so_o these_o roman_n just_o live_v because_o the_o vatican_n suffer_v they_o to_o live_v without_o understand_v the_o nature_n of_o their_o vatican_n but_o i_o be_o not_o able_a to_o endure_v that_o such_o a_o person_n as_o thou_o be_v so_o excellent_o well_o instruct_v in_o so_o many_o witty_a subtlety_n shall_v still_o lie_v immerge_v in_o so_o gross_a a_o ignorance_n know_v then_o that_o to_o the_o modest_a person_n that_o haunt_v the_o vatican_n it_o happen_v just_a as_o it_o do_v in_o france_n to_o such_o as_o will_v needs_o stand_v upon_o their_o formality_n and_o civility_n at_o table_n for_o the_o french_a accustom_v to_o their_o liberty_n of_o behaviour_n eat_v all_o up_o and_o the_o other_o rise_v hungry_a and_o repent_v their_o starch_a modesty_n m._n so_o that_o in_o france_n it_o seem_v they_o be_v no_o soon_o set_v down_o at_o table_n but_o their_o hand_n must_v be_v put_v into_o the_o dish_n as_o quick_a as_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o company_n p._n most_o certain_o unless_o they_o desire_v to_o keep_v lend_v whilst_o the_o french_a keep_v easter_n but_o let_v i_o go_v on_o i_o prithee_o with_o the_o discourse_n my_o friend_n run_v on_o in_o know_v pasquino_n say_v he_o that_o this_o bashfulness_n in_o the_o vatican_n run_v the_o same_o risk_a that_o it_o do_v at_o the_o table_n in_o france_n where_o those_o that_o reach_v not_o out_o their_o hand_n go_v without_o their_o dinner_n so_o that_o it_o be_v necessary_a in_o the_o vatican_n to_o make_v use_n of_o the_o french_a boldness_n that_o be_v go_v confident_o into_o all_o place_n pry_v into_o the_o most_o reserve_v write_n in_o cabinet_n ask_v impudent_o for_o any_o thing_n they_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o speak_v free_o what_o they_o intend_v to_o do_v look_v out_o for_o their_o dinner_n without_o be_v invite_v in_o fine_a quarrel_n with_o the_o master_n in_o their_o own_o house_n if_o they_o give_v they_o not_o more_o than_o they_o offer_v to_o ask_v thus_o the_o french_a comport_v themselves_o wherever_o they_o be_v admit_v and_o thus_o must_v all_o people_n do_v in_o the_o vatican_n or_o else_o they_o must_v come_v out_o as_o empty_a as_o they_o go_v in_o fruit_n never_o fall_v from_o their_o tree_n till_o they_o begin_v to_o lose_v their_o savour_n and_o putrify_v so_o that_o those_o who_o make_v a_o trade_n of_o they_o must_v gather_v they_o before_o they_o decay_n modesty_n in_o the_o vatican_n ruin_v those_o that_o use_v it_o they_o that_o will_v have_v grace_n must_v be_v importunate_a for_o they_o and_o those_o that_o will_v receive_v favour_n must_v earnest_o beg_v they_o and_o they_o that_o will_v not_o be_v reject_v must_v be_v skilful_a to_o put_v themselves_o forward_o those_o that_o rule_n in_o the_o vatican_n be_v usual_o deaf_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o speak_v aloud_o or_o they_o be_v blind_a and_o those_o that_o stand_v at_o a_o distance_n be_v not_o take_v notice_n of_o you_o must_v if_o they_o be_v deaf_a pull_v they_o by_o the_o coat_n tell_v who_o you_o be_v and_o what_o you_o desire_v and_o like_o jacob_n with_o the_o angel_n not_o suffer_v they_o to_o depart_v till_o you_o have_v receive_v the_o blessing_n if_o they_o be_v deaf_a take_v they_o about_o the_o neck_n set_v your_o mouth_n to_o their_o ear_n and_o cry_v out_o as_o the_o jew_n do_v when_o they_o call_v for_o their_o messiah_n and_o repeat_v your_o note_n till_o you_o have_v evident_a sign_n that_o all_o you_o say_v be_v well_o understand_v woe_n be_v to_o those_o that_o stand_v at_o the_o vatican_n gate_n expect_v that_o the_o alm_n of_o some_o benefit_n shall_v be_v send_v to_o they_o for_o this_o be_v a_o place_n which_o can_v never_o be_v open_v whilst_o the_o pope_n keep_v the_o key_n themselves_o unless_o it_o be_v those_o who_o can_v force_v it_o with_o paul_n sword_n since_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o pope_n to_o despise_v those_o that_o overvalue_v they_o and_o to_o value_v those_o that_o despise_v they_o the_o devout_a the_o meek_a and_o the_o humble_a be_v open_o neglect_v the_o insolent_a the_o rash_a and_o the_o proud_a immediate_o find_v hat_n for_o their_o head_n because_o cardinalship_n bishopric_n abbey_n and_o benefice_n be_v never_o give_v by_o the_o pope_n but_o always_o steal_v by_o the_o pretender_n therefore_o my_o dear_a pasquino_n if_o thou_o will_v observe_v modesty_n in_o that_o place_n thou_o be_v certain_a to_o have_v nothing_o fall_v to_o thy_o share_n m._n this_o discourse_n must_v much_o encourage_v thou_o and_o inflame_v thy_o desire_n to_o go_v far_o on_o p._n it_o do_v so_o embolden_v i_o that_o i_o get_v from_o behind_o the_o pillar_n where_o i_o retire_v out_o of_o respect_n to_o the_o place_n so_o that_o i_o walk_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o those_o great_a pope_n strut_a about_o with_o my_o hand_n on_o my_o girdle_n like_o bartholomew_n of_o bergamus_n m._n methinks_v they_o shall_v be_v enrage_v to_o see_v you_o in_o that_o posture_n but_o perhaps_o none_o of_o they_o know_v thou_o p._n i_o think_v not_o or_o at_o least_o they_o will_v not_o know_v i_o and_o i_o be_v not_o scandalize_v at_o that_o for_o i_o know_v it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o pope_n neither_o to_o know_v nor_o be_v familiar_a with_o any_o but_o those_o they_o have_v a_o mind_n to_o know_v beside_o the_o hall_n be_v great_a and_o i_o be_v in_o the_o middle_n of_o it_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o possible_a that_o they_o may_v either_o not_o discover_v or_o not_o
