Many others of his kindred, even his Nephews, came from _Germany_ to _Rome_, with a design to enrich their fortunes, as other Popes Relations had done; but they soon found they had abus’d themselves, for the Pope, angry at their journey, sent them all back, with no other Present, then each of them a woollen Sute, and just as much money as would suffice to bear their charges. Nay, even to one, who out of necessity was come a foot, he refused to give any more then would just defray his expences on foot back again. ’Tis true, that some Cardinals were very Noble to them. This Pope was continually blaming the Prodigality of those who had bestowed such great riches upon the Church. In the year that this Pope liv’d, _Rome_ was so afflicted and visited with Warre, Famine, and Plague, that it cannot be remembred without tears, and the people very unjustly laid all the fault upon the Pope, all mouths being open to clamour against him, and sing the Latin Verse: _Semper de Sextis diruta Roma fuit_. To _Adrian_ succeeded _Clement_ the Seventh of the Family of the _Medici_, who conserving the wonted ambition of this Family encreased their revenues and power with all his industry, insomuch that after he had been imprison’d and extraordinarily ill us’d by the Emperour _Charles_ the Fifth, he nevertheless entred into a confederacy with him, upon condition that he should give his bastard Daughter _Margaret_ in Marriage to _Alexander_ of _Medici_, _Lawrens_ his Son, and by force of Arms oblige the _Florentines_ to acknowledge him for their Lawful Prince. All this was accordingly executed, the Emperor having sent the Prince of _Orange_ with a very great Army to settle the _Medici_ in their new principality. And _Clement_ not content with this; as soon as the Emperour was gone into _Spain_, made a new league with _Francis_ the First of _France_, and to strengthen it, _Henry_ the Second, the Daulphin of _France_, married _Catharina_ of _Medicis_ Daughter to _Laurens_; the wedding was kept at _Marseillis_, where the King and the Pope were both present. The Pope having thus happily setled his family, returned to _Rome_, and there died: In _September_ 1534. and in the same year, in the Month of _October_, _Paul_ the Third was chosen to fill his place, with great joy and applause of the people of _Rome_. He was _Alexander Farnese_ Cardinal, and one who shewed himself worthy of so eminent a dignity.
