In S. Pietro, in the chapel that contains the Lance which pierced the side of Christ, he painted a panel in distemper, with the Madonna larger than life, for the said Innocent VIII; and he painted two chapels in the Church of S. Maria del Popolo, one for the aforesaid Domenico della Rovere, Cardinal of San Clemente, who was afterwards buried therein, and the other for Cardinal Innocenzio Cibo, wherein he also was afterwards buried; and in each of these chapels he portrayed the Cardinal who had caused him to paint it.
"By playing cards and supping!" exclaimed Pietrapertosa. "And your hand? Think of your hand.... You will tremble, and you will miss your man." "Alright dinner," said Cibo, "to bed at ten o'clock, up at six-thirty, and two eggs with a glass of old port is the recipe Machault gives."
"All that now remains for us," concluded Cibo, who had brought back the news, "is to draw up our official report." At that instant, and as the witnesses were preparing to reenter the house for the last formality, an incident occurred, very unexpected, which was to transform the encounter, up to that time so simple, into one of those memorable duels which are talked over at clubs and in armories.
John Baptist Cibo, elected to the Papacy in 1485, under the designation of Innocent VIII, was sincerely alarmed at the number of witches, and launched forth his terrible manifesto against them.
He came upon Pietrapertosa and Cibo, who had dined there, and who, seated on one of the divans, were conferring in whispers with the gravity of two ambassadors discussing the Bulgarian or Egyptian question. "You have a very nervous air," they said to Boleslas, "you who were in such good form this afternoon." "Yes," said Cibo, "you should have dined with us as we asked you to."
Then he resumed the conversation with redoubled energy, to pause in his turn, however, when the landau took, a little beyond the Tomb of Caecilia, a transverse road in the direction of the Ardeatine Way. It was there that 'l'Osteria del tempo perso' was built, upon the ground belonging to Cibo, on which the duel was to take place.
They were all three there, the betrothed and the father, and so happy! I vow, it was fine. Cardinal Guerillot baptized pretty Fanny." "And Dorsenne?" again questioned the invalid. "He was there," said Cibo. "You will be vexed when I tell you of the reply he dared to make us. We asked him how he had managed nervous as he is to aim at you as he aimed, without trembling. For he did not tremble.
And the fift we cast anker in a reasonable good harborow called New Port vnder an Island some eight leagues from Cibo, and within three leagues from the English port. At this place in pursuing certaine shallops of a ship of Rochel, one of them came aboord, who told vs, that the Biskainer whom we sought, was in the English port with two Biskainers more, and two ships of Rochel.
They were all three there, the betrothed and the father, and so happy! I vow, it was fine. Cardinal Guerillot baptized pretty Fanny." "And Dorsenne?" again questioned the invalid. "He was there," said Cibo. "You will be vexed when I tell you of the reply he dared to make us. We asked him how he had managed nervous as he is to aim at you as he aimed, without trembling. For he did not tremble.
"Yes," resumed Cibo, "if it were only the two successive duels of Henry de Pene." "Which furnish authority," concluded Pietrapertosa. "Authority has nothing to do with it," again exclaimed Montfanon.
