Pescara, v/ho felt that his services were not duly acknowledged or re- quited, begged for his dismissal ; in order, as he said, to close his life in some obscure corner of tlie earth, " fjxr from suspicion and from war.

Had not the first knight and captain of France lately set an example of defection ? Was it impossible to lead Pescara to a similar course ? He, too, was born in Italy, and was, in the exactest sense of the word, an Italian. The consequences which would result from gain- ing over such a man were incalculable.
