Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor: (Stanhope Historical Essay 1901)
Seton-Watson, R. W. (Robert William)
Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor, 1459-1519
[101] Quoted, Geiger, page 364.

Kirchenreform in_ 1510--in Briegers Zeitschrift für Kirchengeschichte,
vol. iii.

[104] Janssen, i., p. 304. The English translation of Alexander
Barclay, published in 1508, is a favourite with collectors of rare
editions.
[105] "A prince can mak' a belted knight
A marquis, duke an' a' that;
But an honest man's aboon his might--
Guid faith, he mauna fa' that."--_Burns_.
Compare also--
"Ferre lo Sole il fango tutto il giorno;
Vile riman, nè il Sol perde calore.
Dice uomo altier, 'Gentil per schiatta torno';
Lui sembro al fango, al Sol gentil valore."--_Guido Guinicelli_.
[106] _Elegiaca exhortatio contra perfldos et sacrilegos
Flamingos_--quoted Schmidt, i., p. 283.
[107] Quoted, Schmidt, i. 261.
[108] _Varia Carmina_.--Brant.
[109] One of the trade routes from Venice and the East was through
Innsbruck direct to Augsburg.
[110] The great houses of Fugger and Welser had connexions throughout
Europe.
[111] 1500, 1510, 1518.
[112] The following list of his visits does not profess to be
complete--1491, 1502, 1504, March 1508, February to May and June to
July 1510, March to April, and May 1513, March 1514, January 1515,
January 1516, January and July 1517, July 1518.
[113] See Theodor Herberger, _Conrad Peutinger in seinem Verhältniss
zum Kaiser Maximilian I_.
[114] _Romanae vetustatis fragmenta in Augusta Vindelicorum et eius
Diocesi_.
[115] His chief publications were: (1) _Historia horarum Canonicarum de
S. Hieronymo_ (1512). (2) _Jornandes, De rebus Gothorum_ (1515). (3)
_Paulus Diaconus forojuliensis, de gestis Langobardorum_ (1515). (4)
_Chronicon Abbatis Urspergensis a Nino Rege Assyriorum magno usque ad
Fridericum II. Rom. Imperatorem_ (1515). (5) New edition of Macrobius,
_De Somno Scipionis_. He also wrote himself--_Sermones convivales de
finibus Germaniae contra Gallos_, and _Germania ex variis scriptoribus
perbrevis explicatio_.
[116] C. Headlam, _Nuremberg_, p. 60.
[117] It is not, I think, pedantic nor beside the mark, to compare the
words of Pirkheimer and Zola--"Ich werde nie Verschweigenswertes
enthüllen, denn die Wahrheit, die nur zeitweise bedrückt, aber niemals
unterdrückt werden kann, wird sich selbst offenbaren" (from _Der
gehobelte Eck_); and "La vérité est en avance, et rien ne l'arrêtera!"
(open letter on Dreyfus).
