But it may chance to this they will say: These
things may sometime happen in the best governed commonwealths, yea, and against
the magistrates’ wills: and besides, there be good laws made to punish
such. I grant it be so: but by what good laws (I would know) have these
great mischiefs been punished amongst them? Petrus Aloisius, after he had
done that notorious act that I spake of, was always cherished in his father’s
bosom, Pope Paul the Third, and made his very derling. Diasius, after he
had murdered his own brother, was delivered by the Pope’s means, to the end he
might not be punished by good laws. John Casus, the Archbishop of
Beneventum, is yet alive, yea, and liveth at Rome, even in the eyes and sight
of the most holy father.
