Excerpt from Ricordi di Roma
Ma torniamo al nostro Inglese; esso conoscerą, ol tre i cardinali e i prelati l'aristocrazia laicale, ricchi, spensierati che parlano mezzo-italiano e mezzo-france se, pił cosmopoliti dei preti, vogliosi pił di sapere quel che si fa nel mondo rapporto ai cavalli e alle mode.

Niente di fierezza, niente di perseverenza in codesti principi. E in mezzo a loro_17.
