A cardinal, we cannot yet release him

From vows—your ear!—he holds detestable.

My second son, where were his livelihood

Without the Church’s revenue? All prudence

Must hold him to the priesthood for a while.

Betroth him to the daughter of your king—

Your king and I, at leisure, will provide

Some principality for Cesare

To match his sees and yielded cardinalate.
