| Requests him to grant the privilege (privilegio) to print the works of the late Cardinal Bembo, (fn. 1) which privilege to be in conformity with the one given by the Pope in this matter. Cardinal Bembo appointed Pole protector (protettore) (fn. 2) of his will, in which he expressly charges Messer Carlo Gualteruzzi to print his works. Cannot but perform this office for twofold reasons, and particularly lest Messer Carlo, who has to incur the cost of printing, be a loser thereby, as might easily prove the case, unless he obtains the privileges from the Cardinal of Mantua and the other Italian potentates in whose towns books are printed, and by the greater part of whom they have been very graciously conceded. Encloses copy of the briefs for the information of the Cardinal's Chancery (Cancellaria) (fn. 3) | |
