A Dialogue between the Pope and Cardinal Ottoboni.
CARDINAL.
Great Pontiff, James the Chevalier
Has sent me on a message here;
He begs, as you're his only Friend,
One hundred thousand crowns you'll send,
For George the King of England's dead,
And James would very feign succeed.
POPE.
One hundred thousand crowns? No less!
It's true, I wish him good success,
But that's to much for me to give,
Or for a Beggar to receive;
. . . [38 more lines, signed] FOR.
