When engaged in superintending the examinationi) of the prisoners, and giving directions as to the torture to which they should be put, he was accus- tomed to indulge in the most profane and cruel raillery, saying that these heretics had the com-^ mandment, ** Thou shalt love thy neighbour ag thyself,^' 80 deeply seated in their hearts, that it was necessary to tear the flesh from their bones, to make them inform against the...ir brethren. During the intervals of business, he was to be seen sailing in his barge on the river, or walking in the gardens of the Tfiana, dressed in purple and silk, accompa- nied with a train of servants, surrounded by wretch- ed poetasters, and followed by hired crowds, who at one time saluted him with their huz^s, and at another insulted the protestants^ whom they descried through the grated windows of the castle.* ^ An anecdote which is told of him, though trifling com- pared with the horrors of that time, deserves to b^ repeated as a proof of the insolence of office, and one among many instances of the shameless man* jsker in which the inquisitors converted their author^ ity into an instrument of gratifying their meanest passions.
