When one of the wild young nobles of the town was condemned to death according to the harsh law of the day for having dared to criticize his government, Catherine visited him in prison. She found him raging up and down his cell like some trapped wild animal, refusing all comfort; but her presence and sympathy brought him so great a sense of peace and even of thanksgiving that he went to the scaffold at last joyfully, we are told, calling it 'the holy place of justice'. Here, not shrinking from ...the scene of death itself, Catherine awaited him, kneeling before the block, and received his head in her lap when it was severed from his body. 'When he was at rest,' she wrote afterwards, showing what the strain had been, 'my soul also rested in peace and quiet.' St. Catherine was not alarmed when ambassadors from other cities, and even messengers from the Pope at Avignon, came to ask her advice on thorny problems. She believed that she was a messenger of God, 'servant and slave of the servants of Jesus Christ ', as she styled herself in her letters, and that God intended the regeneration of Italy to be brought about neither by Emperor, nor by a Holy Roman Republic, but by the Pope himself No longer must he live at Avignon, but return to Rome, and, once established there, begin the work of reform so sorely needed both by Church and State.
