To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In this work I exerted the utmost efibrts of my art, and it gained me great honour : the duke repeatedly expressed the highest satisfaction at my per- formance, and gave me the inscription for the head of his excellency as well as for the reverse. The words intended for the reverse were " Pretiosa in conspectu Domini:" this intimated that the peace had been dearly purchased for a large sum of money.
Whilst I was busy about this reverse, the cardinal wrote to me to get ready, for the king insist...ed upon my coming directly, and that the next time I heard from him I should receive an order for all he had promised me. I caused my basin and cup to be packed up, having before shown them to tlie duke. A gentleman of Ferrara, Signor Alberto Bendidio, was agent to the cardinal: this person had re- mained twelve years without ever stirring out of his house, on account of a lingering disorder. He one day sent for me in a great hurry, and said that I must that instant take post, and use the utmost expedition to wait upon the king, who had inquired for me with the greatest eagerness and solicitude, thinking I was in France.
