Description
Excerpt from Æneas Silvius (Enea Silvio De'' Piccolomini-Pius II.): Orator, Man of Letters, Statesman, and Pope
MY dear sully, - Years have passed since you first held out to me the helpful hand of your friendship, and I have long been anxious to show you how I value it. So I venture to offer you this little study as a mark of admiration and deep regard. Should its quality prove very defective, at least the senti ment which accompanies the volume is sincere. You, as well as I, are interested in the great historic forces of the fifteenth century you, as well as I, have been fascinated by the personality of feneas Silvius, and have found it very complex and by no means easy to understand.
