Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life And Pontificate Of Leo The Tenth, Vol. 5 of 6 IF the Lucretia of ancient history has been considered... as the glory of her sex, the Lucretia of modern Rome has been alleged as an example of its disgrace and its shame. From her own times to the present, her depra vity is on historical record; yet many circumstances con cur to raise considerable doubts in the mind of an im partial inquirer, whether the horrible 'accusations under which her memory labours be well founded. Amidst the licentiousnèss that characterized the age in which she lived, the most flagrant charges acquire a probability which they could not in another period obtain; and among the vices of the times, calumny and falsehood have in general been at least _as active as the rest.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Pontificate of Leo the Tenth, Vol. 2 of 2 The Swiss, whom the breach of the treaty of Dijon had rendered irreconcilable enemies of France, still continued to breathe from their mountains defiance and revenge. A herald, whom Francis sent to demand passports for his ambassadors, instead of obtaining the object of his mission, was ordered to return and inform his sovereign that he might soon expect another visit from them, unless he speedily fulfilled the treaty. In one respect this avowed hostility was, however, serviceable to the king, as it enabled him, under the pretext of opposing the Swiss, to carry on, without exciting the jealousy of sur rounding states, those formidable preparations which he intended to direct towards another quarter.

This book was released on 2018-11-24 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Pontificate of Leo the Tenth, Vol. 1 of 2 For almost three centuries the curiosity of mankind has been directed towards the age of leo the tenth. The history of that period has not, however, yet been attempted in a manner in any degree equal to the grandeur and variety of the subject. Nor is this difficult to be accounted for. Attractive as such an undertaking may at first appear, it will be found on a nearer inspection to be surrounded by many difficulties. The magnitude of such a task; the trouble of collecting the materials necessary to its proper execution; the long devotion of time and of labour which it must unavoid ably require, and, above all, the apprehensions of not fulfilling the high expectations which have been formed of it, are some of those circumstances which have perhaps prevented the accomplishment of a work which has often been suggested, sometimes closely contemplated, but hitherto cautiously declined.
