The prince, annoyed at beingshut out in this way, began to act in a violent and despotic manner. On his own authority he released prisoners; he showered favours uponHungarians, and gave especial honours and rich gifts to Giovanni Pipino, Count of Altanuera, the enemy of all others most dreaded and detested bythe Neapolitan barons. Then the Counts of San Severino, Mileto, Terlizziand Balzo, Calanzaro and Sant' Angelo, and most of the grandees, exasperated by the haughty insolence of Andre's favo...urite, which grewevery day more outrageous, decided that he must perish, and his masterwith him, should he persist in attacking their privileges and defyingtheir anger.
Moreover, the women who were about Joan at the court egged her on, eachone urged by a private interest, in the pursuit of her fresh passion. Poor Joan, --neglected by her husband and betrayed by Robert ofCabane--gave way beneath the burden of duties beyond her strength tobear, and fled for refuge to the arms of Bertrand of Artois, whose loveshe did not even attempt to resist; for every feeling for religionand virtue had been destroyed in her own set purpose, and her younginclinations had been early bent towards vice, just as the bodies ofwretched children are bent and their bones broken by jugglers whenthey train them.
