The college of Cardinals summed Him up in the brilliant epigram of Tacitus. 'Capax imperii nisi imperâsset.' He would have been an ideal ruler if He had not ruled.

Religious people said that He was an incomprehensible creature. And the man on the motor said that the pace certainly had been rather rapid.

Pray for the repose of His soul. He was so tired.

Feliciter
