The Pope granted us the Motu Proprio of Portici, and the Romans gained nothing by it. Shall our diplomatists repeat in 1859 this same part of dupes?
His talk is really very fine, and he prides himself greatly on his cultivated tone, to which he calls my attention. He has very little good to say about the Sienese nobility. They are "proprio d'origine egoista" whatever that may be and there are many who can't write their names.
He announced the proposition afterwards established by the Supreme Court, that, as the Constitution proprio vigore carried slavery into all the Territories, neither the territorial legislatures nor Congress itself had power to interfere with the right of holding slaves within them.
"Have you ever dined with a cardinal?" he asked. "No, Signorino," that patient sufferer replied. "Well, I'm in the very dickens of a quandary son' proprio nel dickens d'un imbarazzo." he informed her. "Dickens ?" she repeated. "Si Dickens, Carlo, celebre autore inglese. Why not?" he asked. Marietta gazed with long-suffering eyes at the horizon.
Whilst Mazarin was astute enough to make a certain amount of sacrifice in order to reserve to himself the right of not making greater treating everyone with apparent consideration, rendering no one desperate, promising much, holding back the least possible proprio motu of himself, and surrounding Madame de Chevreuse herself with attention and homage without suffering any illusion to beguile him as to the nature of her sentiments she, on her part, paid him back in the same coin.
The English is hardly more than a loose paraphrase, as this random parallel proves: Pars mea, Rex meus, Most Mighty, most Holy, In proprio Deus, How great is the glory, Ipse decore.

I understood that he had to do that; for the Pope, in his "Motu Proprio" decree, has forbidden Catholics to bring a priest into court for any civil crime whatsoever; he has forbidden Catholic policemen to arrest, Catholic judges to try, and Catholic law-makers to make laws affecting any priest of the Church of Rome.
They both start with the supposition that religion must be the truth; and while the former prove that it is not, the latter obstinately maintain that it is; or rather the former cut up and dress the allegory in such a way that it could be true in sensu proprio but would in that case become a platitude.
M. Thiers, to whom none will give credit for being over friendly to the Holy See, drew up, signed and presented this report: “Your commission,” the report states, “has maturely examined this act, motu proprio, in order to see whether the counsels which France believed herself authorized to offer had borne such fruits as to prevent her regretting having interfered in Roman affairs.
It was a deliberate hold-up, justified only by the exigencies of the case, as Walker admitted. But could Congress thus extend the Constitution, by this fiat? questioned Webster. The Constitution extends over newly acquired territory proprio vigore, replied Calhoun. Douglas declined to enter into the subtle questions of constitutional law thus raised.
