discovery of Cardinal Cremona till that the designs of both parties being desperate on a sudden he proposed him and getting together his Votes he pass'd immediately to the Adoration and created him Pope It is no easie matter to break an obstinate conspiracy for the Election of a person especially if the Party be considerable unless their practises be destroy'd by the Excluders proposing a person of their own adverse Faction which for the most part has been successful as oft as it has been tryed So it happen'd in the Conclave of Clement the 8th the Spanish party for two months together gave their Votes constantly in favour of San Severina nor was their constancy ever shaken or disturb'd till Cardinal Aldobrandino who was a Spaniard was propos'd by the Excluders who promising the Head of that Faction which was Avila to choose any one Pope that he should name without communicating first with his followers they were disoblig'd in that manner they were all ready to run from his Colours But to pacifie them Aldobrandino was glad to come to an absolute rupture with Avila If the Head of the Including Faction offers the Head of the Excluding Party to assist him at any time in the Election of one of the Excludents let him alwayes be suspicious for his design is rather to separate and divide the Squadron of Excluders than to do him any good in good earnest This Cardinal Montalto found to be true in the Conclave of Leo the 11th when Aldobrandino to separate the Excludents who had strictly engag'd themselves with Montalto propos'd to him to choose one of his party but as he knew very well how to open his eyes and discover Aldobrandino's designs so he knew well enough how to shut his ears and evade them Let a Cardinal in the Conclave avoid all occasions of Rupture as much as he can for if once he be declar'd an Enemy immediately the Spirit of revenge enters into his heart which may perhaps be instrumental to the detriment of his Enemy but shall never be of advantage to himself And this also Aldobrandino found true in the Conclave of Leo the 11th for coming to words and a manifest breach with Avila he presently fix'd his thoughts upon a person he had otherwise never remembred which was Cardinal Meaici one he had no kindness for at all but he chose him to be reveng'd of Avila The like Aphorisms may be seen likewise for the Court seeing that in such cases the pens of the most curious are at work to discover their subtilties for the benefit of the Publique however their pains have not met with so great an applause whereas these Aphorisms of Azolino were commended as soon as they were seen and judg'd very proper for the instruction of the Cardinals during the vacancy of the See especially such as have not been in any Conclave before Experience in such things exceeds all manner of Learning Yet to speak freely I am not displeas'd with the opinion of a Friend of mine who being well vers'd in the interests of the Court discourses liberally in company and will oftentimes have his own judgement prevail before any bodies else He affirms that neither Experience nor Learning are considerable in the Conclaves and maintains it with more arguments than this Paper will contain Be it as it will it is not known which meets with more rubs in the Conclave the Experienc'd or the Learned Cardinals They which by study and revolving of History manage the affairs of the New Pope will not stoop to persons of the greatest Experience because by actual practice they have gain'd some air of reputation in the precedent Conclaves In like manner those who have been Experienc'd do pretend to command those who are thought Learned for having read in some Books or heard discourses of some Conclave or other But I will not condemn either Experience or Learning Experience is good in the Conclaves and Learning is better but Prudence is more necessary than both A little Experience is enough for a prudent Cardinal whereas all the Experience in the World is in vain if they know not how to use it with discretion In several Conclaves there have been several inexperienc'd Cardinals I might say ignorant of the mystery of Election of Popes yet they have prosper'd very well and by their prudence prevail'd with those who doubted not to have gain'd them in a short time Experience interrupts that many times which Prudence contrives whereas Prudence conjoyns that which Experience hath broken In this last Conclave several effects of this nature were seen but not so many as in the two former in which the most Experienc'd lost their Chard of Navigation because they had not the judgement to make use of it with discretion FINIS Books Printed for and Sold by John Starkey at the Miter betwixt the Middle-Temple-Gate and Temple-Bar in Fleet-street Folio's THE World Surveyed or the famous Voyages and Travels of Vincent le Blanc of Marseilles into the East and West-Indies Persia Pegu Fez Morocco Guinny and through all Africa and the principal Provinces of Europe Price bound 10 s.
