Perhaps Rexa in this letter means Alexander, and the name Farina may signify Cardinal Farnese, upon whose intermediation she counted. Vincenzo finally wrote her that he had spoken to the Pope himself, and Lucretia, in an undated letter, showed her servant how pleased she was because everything had turned out better than she had expected.
God forgive Farina, who could have made everything turn out better and did not do so. I will see whether I can send him Roble before I set out for I wish to send him. No more for the present. Again look well to that matter, and on no account let Rexa see this letter." Lucretia, it appears, wished to leave Nepi and return to Rome, for which her father at first might refuse his permission.
