revenge； with what stubborn faith； with what devotion； with what tears。
What door would be closed to him？ Who would refuse obedience to him？
What envy would hinder him？ What Italian would refuse him homage？ To all
of us this barbarous dominion stinks。 Let； therefore； your illustrious
house take up this charge with that courage and hope with which all just
enterprises are undertaken； so that under its standard our native
country may be ennobled； and under its auspices may be verified that
saying of Petrarch：
Virtu contro al Furore
Prendera l'arme； e fia il batter corto：
Che l'antico valore
Negli italici cuor non e ancor morto。 ＇1＇
1。 Virtue against fury shall advance the fight；
And it i' th' bat soon shall put to flight；
For the old Roman； valour is not dead；
Nor in th' Italians' breasts extinguished。
THE END
