137 II, VIII| consenting parties.~The duke, having acquired the sovereignty

139 II, VIII| his ruin. Bertone Cini, having ventured to speak against
140 II, VIII| the horses run, but he not having gone, their design did not

142 II, VIII| of public business; and having drawn them together, it
143 II, VIII| Giannozzo Cavalcanti, who having withdrawn with some of his
144 II, VIII| the favor of the people. Having caused those whom he had
145 II, VIII| the palace, and saw that having aimed at too much he had
146 II, VIII| satiated with vengeance, having first heard their moans,
147 II, VIII| stomach to be satisfied, that having glutted the external senses,
148 II, VIII| accompanied by many citizens, and having arrived at the Casentino
149 II, I | more obstinate pursuit.~Having settled external affairs,
150 II, I | each party. The government having been established in this
151 II, I | conducted. The nobility having left the palace, the office
152 II, I | and in the former from having lost their power in the
153 II, I | houses and property; and having disarmed them, ordered them
154 II, I | people; for this bridge, having no towers, was weaker than
155 III, I | consented to it without having recourse to arms; so that,
156 III, I | perusal of the preceding book.~Having given an account of the
157 III, I | though falsely reported as having already taken place. This
158 III, I | be of that faction, they having arisen in Arezzo, and come
159 III, I | have long transpired. Piero having favored this law, which
160 III, I | were of this faction; and, having discovered, to signify and
161 III, I | victory is not the glory of having given liberty to the city,
162 III, I | but the satisfaction of having vanquished others, and of
163 III, II | a few powerful persons. Having resolved to put an end to
164 III, II | at one and the same time, having to consult, first the Colleagues
165 III, II | fortune than himself.” And having said this, he left the room
166 III, II | saw the people in arms, having no other resource but concealment
167 III, II | heard to blame himself for having consented to wait till St.
168 III, III | disturbances patiently, they having arisen for the most part
169 III, III | thanking the Gonfalonier for having acted toward them the part
170 III, III | themselves above us; for all men having had one common origin, are
171 III, III | known to the Signory, who, having taken a man named Simone,
172 III, IV | ascended the staircase, and, having entered the audience chamber
173 III, IV | one foot; and those around having torn him to pieces, in little
174 III, IV | as well as they could. Having thus gained the victory,
175 III, IV | the folly of those, who having overcome the pride of the
176 III, V | wheel of fortune, which, having conveyed him to the top,
177 III, V | were provided; and Charles, having arrived at Arezzo, obtained
178 III, V | immediately prosecuted, and having occupied the kingdom of

182 III, V | malignity of those citizens who, having done him an undeserved injury,
183 III, V | then blamed himself for having confided too much in a people
184 III, VI | held it for Louis. Charles, having secured Puglia, went to
185 III, VI | Signory that Filippo, not having attained the age required
186 III, VI | of Benedetto. This man, having entered upon the duties
187 III, VI | those who now govern, who having none to punish them, will
188 III, VI | apprehend; for the duke having taken Bologna, Pisa, Perugia,
189 III, VII | people, that the Signory, having provided themselves with
190 III, VII | That he could not regret having lived so as to gain the
191 III, VII | not warranted; for never having done anything that could
192 III, VII | their homes.~The disturbance having subsided, the Signory armed
193 III, VII | were not thus enrolled. Having adopted these precautionary
194 III, VII | certain. Upon this, Donato, having in vain tried all other
195 III, VII | Donato was summoned, and having appeared, the truth was
196 III, VII | they came to Florence, and having entered unobserved according
197 III, VII | chiefs of the government; and having slain them, reform the republic
198 III, VII | affair to the Signory, who, having caused Samminiato to be
199 III, VII | Samminiato and Tommaso having been punished according
200 III, VII | this time, the government having gained greater strength,
201 III, VII | the conquest of Pisa, and having gloriously completed it,
202 III, VII | that in 1412, the Alberti, having crossed the boundary they
203 IV, I | institutions firm and secure; for having good laws for its basis,
204 IV, I | di Bicci de’ Medici, who having become one of the richest
205 IV, I | exceedingly difficult after having allowed it to gather strength;
206 IV, I | son of Giovanni Galeazzo, having, by the death of his brother,
207 IV, I | against him. The question having been strongly debated, an
208 IV, I | against Imola, that Ludovico, having to provide for the defense
209 IV, I | Modigliana, and an intense frost having rendered the ditches of
210 IV, I | to secure a greater; for having abandoned the siege of Furli
211 IV, I | severity of the season; for, having marched many hours through
212 IV, I | and two of his people, who having fallen from their horses
213 IV, II | the leaders of the rabble. Having repeatedly discussed the
214 IV, II | great, that now, the great having been humbled, and the plebeians
215 IV, II | conferring honors on those who, having never possessed them, esteemed
216 IV, IV | necessities of the poor, without having been solicited so to do.
217 IV, IV | displeased the Florentines; but having just made peace with the
218 IV, IV | assembled their cavalry, and having raised a good body of infantry
219 IV, IV | among the nobility, and having assembled a few of his most
220 IV, IV | its ancient privileges. Having gained them over, they went
221 IV, IV | of a vicariate.~Volterra having been lost and recovered
222 IV, IV | The news of this incursion having reached Florence, persons
223 IV, IV | governor of Lucca, for having conspired against him. Although
224 IV, IV | while Lucca was free, of her having done an injury to the Florentines;
225 IV, IV | semblance of ingratitude, having so lately, with Florentine
226 IV, IV | them; and that if, after having undertaken it, their enterprise
227 IV, IV | own republic.~The question having been debated on both sides,
228 IV, IV | captain. The commissaries having arrived with the army in
229 IV, V | the valley of Seravezza, having escaped the hands of the
230 IV, V | in the human mind; for, having assembled us in our church
231 IV, V | calamity upon us; but after having freely presented ourselves
232 IV, V | betrayed in his bosom.” Having said this they threw themselves
233 IV, V | The atrocity of the affair having already been made known,
234 IV, V | the ditch itself, so that having first prevented the water
235 IV, V | remote position.~The design having failed, the Council of Ten,
236 IV, V | permission to go to Naples; and having obtained it, he proceeded
237 IV, V | fifty thousand ducats; and having made this agreement, to
238 IV, V | The departure of the count having delivered Lucca from her
239 IV, V | to conduct their forces. Having by this step declared his
240 IV, VI | naturally partial and (having always lived in faction)
241 IV, VI | they being so numerous, and having the good will of all upon
242 IV, VI | prepared his followers, and having concerted with Rinaldo,
243 IV, VII | their approaching ruin for having allowed themselves to be
244 IV, VII | it was found necessary. Having come to this conclusion,
245 IV, VII | prison, upon the charge of having applied the public money
246 IV, VII | palace to be shut up, and having no one to consult they knew
247 IV, VII | his coming to the piazza, having waited in expectation of
248 IV, VII | at this time at Florence, having been driven from Rome by
249 IV, VII | down his arms. Rinaldo, having witnessed Palla’s want of
250 IV, VII | into Florence by night. Having taken possession of all
251 IV, VII | blame myself principally for having thought that you, who were
252 V, I | decline. In the same manner, having been reduced by disorder,
253 V, I | before philosophers. Arms having secured victory, and victory
254 V, I | which, men’s sufferings having made them wiser, they again
255 V, I | from their city: and he, having with difficulty escaped,
256 V, I | arms in his cause, after having been so anxious to lay them
257 V, I | although, to the injury of having occupied it, he had added
258 V, I | ignominious peace. The count, having been thus been reconciled
259 V, I | forces, and came to Cesena, having left the war of La Marca
260 V, I | occasion. Thus in a short time, having expelled or impoverished
261 V, II | this time in Sicily, and having obtained the concurrence
262 V, II | without the necessity of having to solicit a passage for
263 V, II | becoming lord of Naples; for having only the French to fear,
264 V, II | was in preparation, and having conducted himself with great
265 V, II | about the city. The Genoese having placed the government in
266 V, II | war against Florence, and having arrived at Milan, Rinaldo
267 V, II | government, you may easily judge; having Tuscany friendly, and bound
268 V, II | besieged and took Serezana, and having committed great ravages,
269 V, II | therefore, each party, having no other resource, prepared
270 V, II | place, made the attempt, and having failed, ravaged the surrounding
271 V, II | Venetians, and the Lucchese having received the enemy into
272 V, III | you should accuse us of having caused the present war,
273 V, III | against us now, they say, for having received Niccolo; but if
274 V, III | alarmed, the marquis of Mantua having abandoned them and gone
275 V, III | resulted that the Venetians, having commenced the war, would
276 V, III | pass into Lombardy; and having taken Uzzano, and raised
277 V, III | to do so, for the duke, having been informed that out of
278 V, III | Cosmo returned without having effected any part of his
279 V, III | declined them; but the pope having returned to Florence, they
280 V, III | satisfied, and the Florentines having so far completed the building
281 V, III | ceremonies of consecration having been completed, the pope,
282 V, III | prelates of the Western church having spoken at great length upon
283 V, III | Roman and Greek prelates having held a conference during
284 V, IV | and the duke and the count having become friends, hopes were
285 V, IV | his holiness deserved, for having unblushingly attempted to
286 V, IV | duke and himself, and for having dispersed over Italy letters
287 V, IV | part with the Venetians. Having taken possession of Romagna,
288 V, IV | country about Brescia, and having soon completely conquered
289 V, IV | old and habitual friends. Having foreseen the necessity into
290 V, IV | the lord of Faenza, after having entered into compact with
291 V, IV | that he may not repent of having come to your assistance,
292 V, V | objectionable. The count having received his instructions,
293 V, V | Verona without opposition.~Having happily succeeded in his
294 V, V | preservation of Brescia. Having taken this resolution, the
295 V, V | permanent advantage; but they, having thoughtlessly let it slip,
296 V, V | former difficulties. Niccolo, having returned to his forces,
297 V, V | fortresses should hold out. Having collected his forces, he
298 V, V | fled to Mantua, where, having assembled the relics of
299 V, V | the weather very severe, having first with considerable
300 V, V | was bold and cunning; and, having obtained great influence,
301 V, V | sensible of his error in having endowed the cardinal with
302 V, VI | into effect. The patriarch, having determined to go into Tuscany,
303 V, VI | him punctual; and Antonio, having drawn him, as if for the
304 V, VI | and ordered that Neri, having discovered how the Venetians
305 V, VI | with increased speed; and, having arrived at Venice, they
306 V, VI | to the count at Verona, having been sent to consider these
307 V, VI | Venice; and the Venetians, having so large an amount of money
308 V, VI | subjects and friends, and that having come into Lombardy as a
309 V, VI | nothing in Tuscany. Each party having spoken, it was determined
310 V, VI | hands of the enemy, where having encamped, he put a stop
311 V, VI | in the army of Niccolo, having deserted the Florentines,
312 V, VI | collected all their forces, having assembled under several
313 V, VI | succor. The commissaries having examined the site, found
314 V, VI | he became suspected, and having attempted unsuccessfully
315 V, VI | governor of the place, who, having secured the leaders of the
316 V, VII | army, and the Venetians having again covered the lake with
317 V, VII | Anghiari. Pietro Giampagolo having previous to the surprise,
318 V, VII | Anghiari, and Micheletto having taken his position in front
319 V, VII | proceeded upon the road, Niccolo having no opportunity to reinforce
320 V, VII | any honorable means, but, having fallen from his horse, was
321 V, VII | they went to Arezzo, and, having secured their plunder, returned
322 V, VII | to the celestial country, having lost the terrestrial, he
323 V, VII | the holy sepulcher; whence having returned, he died suddenly
324 V, VII | Neri replied: “That his having expected great results from
325 V, VII | finding the report of Niccolo having proceeded either to Rome
326 VI, I | concerning the marriage, having been so repeatedly deceived;
327 VI, I | Niccolo into Lombardy, winter having already commenced, the armies
328 VI, I | Romagna. The latter, after having been victorious at Anghiari,
329 VI, I | pressed by Niccolo, who, having foreseen that the enemy
330 VI, I | he sent him word that, having served under his ensign
331 VI, I | in the wars of Lombardy. Having heard of the conclusion
332 VI, I | honorably received; and having remained a few days, finding
333 VI, I | the count, but Annibale, having routed Francesco Piccinino,

338 VI, II | greater confusion. Bartolommeo having therefore resolved to murder
339 VI, II | they suspected of being so.~Having thus recovered and confirmed
340 VI, II | King Alfonso, and the count having been aggrandized by the
341 VI, II | the son prisoner. Niccolo having arrived at Milan saw that
342 VI, II | at the age of sixty-four, having been a brave rather than
343 VI, II | defeated and himself dead, having little hope of assistance
344 VI, II | friends of the Bentivogli, having sought him all day, and
345 VI, II | age to govern, Annibale having left but one son whose name
346 VI, II | Francesco, and arrangements having been made, Ciarpellone asked
347 VI, II | obtain Pesaro; but the count, having obtained possession, gave

350 VI, III | favorable to the duke; both having resolved, that having gained
351 VI, III | both having resolved, that having gained the count over to
352 VI, III | and the ducal ambassadors, having returned to Milan to learn
353 VI, III | galleys at Livorno, and having succeeded in throwing three
354 VI, III | Tuscany the Count Sforza, having become leader of the Milanese
355 VI, III | the Brescian territory. Having encamped before Caravaggio,
356 VI, III | proceeded together, not having been there, and having no
357 VI, III | not having been there, and having no opportunity of interfering
358 VI, IV | the city. The Venetians, having well-grounded fears that
359 VI, IV | they would be compelled, having no other resource, to fall
360 VI, IV | to fall into their hands. Having taken this resolution, they
361 VI, IV | inhabitants, when the Venetians having taken Crema, thought they
362 VI, IV | their liberty unimpaired. Having come to this agreement,
363 VI, IV | Milanese or since; for he never having been in need had not pressingly
