likewise a personal friend of the latter. The ex- 

 pression " da voi " would rather point to an Eng- 

 lish correspondent. Be this as it may, the letter 

 is very interesting, as illustrating the feeling at 

 Rome, just at that critical time, with regard to 

 Laud's tendencies ; and there may haply be some

 voglio raccontar una vanita, ma tanto publica in 

 Italia che viene creduta non come profetia ma 

 come historia. Perche il Papa visto di 71 anni,

 mai sie lasciato indur a far promotione cosa piu 

 non occorsa che non si accomodino li Nipoti. La 

 fama sparge, che e perche vuole metterci 1' arci-

"E perche mi venne detto essere negotio arduo, 

 da non spedirsi cosi tosto che' 1 Papa donnesse

 tanto impeto che non so, che il Papa ha alia Corte 

 dei Inglesi un Prelato che lo tratto. Et il Re un
