1342) bears a character in history for JEWS IN ITALY. Luxury and dissipation which is hardh' surpassed by the vilest of the occupants of the papal chair ; but his single good point — kindness of heart — was exhibited in his endea- vours to suppress the persecution of the Jews, and the friendly shelter which he afforded to such of the unhapp\- race as sought refuge in his dominions. The absence from Rome of the popes during the sevent\- years which elapsed between the settlement of Clement V. At... Avignon, and the appointment, in 1378, of an antipope in the person of Urban VI. , renders the history of the Jews during this century unusually meagre. But they appear to have lived unmolested in the various Italian towns. They must iiave been on good terms with the pope's legate at Bologna, where they presented him with a copy of the Old Testament Scriptures, said to have been written by Ezra himself This is still preserved, we are told, in the librar\- of the Dominicans in that cit}'. They were protected also by the Venetian government, which allowed them to settle as bankers in their city.
