Doctor Peter Martyr, of whom I cannot speak without great reverence, having good cause to know the state of Rome, as few men better, hereof writeth thus: 1None, O Deus bone, quomodò Romae coercentur Meretrices? Habent ornatissimas domos: vehuntur per publicum habitu principum: Sedent in equis gradarijs: habent secum Torquatos, & Laruatos Comites: interdum etiam Cardinales, praesertim noctu: & ancillarum sumptuosissimum gregem: Now a days, O good God, how are the Courtesans punished in Rome? They dwell in the fairest houses: They are carried with honour through the City, as if they were Ladies: They are mounted on ambling palfreys: They are attended with chains of gold, and persons disguised, and sometimes Cardinals, and specially in the night season: and have a sumptuous sort of Maids to wait upon them.
