Excerpt from The Right Joyous and Pleasant History of the Feats, Gests, and Prowesses of the Chevalier Bayard, Vol. 2 of 2: The Good Knight Without Fear and Without Reproach
This messenger, who liked nothing better than such commissions, said he could manage the affair very well, and went straight to Fer rara to confer with the Duke, who, as a wise and subtle Prince, gave the fellow a good hearing, and pretended that he would gladly comply with the Pope's desire; but he would rather have died an hundred thousand deaths, having too noble and' excellent an heart to do any such thing.
This he clearly manifested; for after having well regaled Messer Angustino, and shut him up in an apartment in the Palace, whereof he took away the key, he went with one Gentleman only to the good Knight's lodgings, and fully related to him the whole affair; whereat he crossed himself, and could not conceive that the Pope would be so wicked as to accomplish what he had proposed. But the Duke assured him that nothing was more true, and that, if he desired it he would put him into a closet in his Palace, when. He might hear the fellow repeat all he had said to him: that he knew it could be no falsehood by the tokens he had given him: but would sooner be torn to pieces by four horses, than even have thought of consenting to such an atrocious project; observing how much he was bound to the House of France, and how well the King had aided him in his so great necessity.
