One matter that made the memorie of that daie wonderfull,Pope Leo a poore priso|ner the verie same daie twelue mo|neth of his e|lection and in|thronization. was this consideration; that the person who then in so high & rare pompe was honored with the most supreme and souereigne dignitie of the world, was the yéere before, and on the verie same daie miserablie made prisoner. The great magnifi|cence that appéered vpon his person, and his expenses, confirmed in the generalitie and multitude of men, the expectation that was had of him; euerie one pro|mising that Rome should be happie vnder a pope so plentifullie indued with the vertue of liberalitie, whereof that daie he had giuen an honorable experi|ence, his expenses being aboue an hundred thousand duckats. But wise men desired in him a greater grauitie and moderation: they iudged that neither such a maiestie of pompe was conuenient for popes, neither did the condition of the present time require, that he should so vnprofitablie disperse the treasures that had beene gathered by his predecessour to other vses.]
