He certainly did not pofiefs either the humility, or especially the chaftity, of a Chriftian. But the cardinal de Bernis and the chevalier Azara, who had better opportunities than Gorani of appreciating him, never thought that his talents were but fuperficial.
The period of his retirement was that when the Holy See was beginning to fuffer the moft formidable attacks from France. A minifter of Buoncompagni's character, equally prudent as he, but enjoying greater authority, would then have been v
...ery neceffary to the Roman pontiff. The Sacred College contained no cardinal of that temper : thofe who poflefled any capacity, either were viewed with very fufpicious eye by the catholic powers, or would have been un- acceptable to the pope. The minifters of France and Spairi again propofed the cardinal Zelada, whom they had invariably efteemed, and againft whom Pius foftered no prepoffeflion.
