If ye shall happen to doubt M. Martyrs report in this behalf, 1yet I trust ye will give some credit to your own Friends, the Cardinals of the Church of Rome. Their words hereof be these: In hac etiam Urbe Meretrices, ut ⟨p. 372⟩Matronae, incedunt per Urbem, seu Mula vehuntur: quas affectantur de media die Nobiles, familiars Cardinalium, Clericque. Nulla in urbe vidimus hanc corruptionem, praeterquam in hac omnium exemplari. Habitant etiam insignes aedes. In this City of Rome the Courtesans pass through the streets, or ride on their Mules, like honest Matrons, or Ladies: and in the middest of the day, Noble men, the Cardinals deer friends, and Priests attend upon them. We never saw such corruption, but only in this City, which is the example, and pattern of all others. Moreover they dwell in fair and notable houses. 2This Information was presented unto Pope Paul the third by certain of his gravest Cardinals, appointed thereto by special Commission.
