To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


The ** Mass of Bolsena '* is, without doubt, the most celebrated of these works. It is a representation of the legend that a priest who had doubted the miracle of transubstantiation was brought back to the faith by the flowing of blood from the host, while he himself waa ccU'brating the mass at BolseTia. These pictures might also be con- sidered as having a secular as well as religious meaning, for the Pope in the picture of the " March of Attila " was a likeness of Leo. X^ RAPHAEL. 477 who in
...1518 had succeeded in expelling the French from Italy. The socle pictures, too, representing Protection, Peace, Commerce, Plenty, -etc., conveyed a delicate compliment to the rule of Leo X. To Julius n. the praise may be given of having developed the genius of both Michael Angelo and Raphael, by giving them the opportunity of executing such extensive works as they alone were able to do.
And yet much of the glory has been given to Leo X. , in whose reign the plans of Julius were* perfected. Raphael painted more and greater works in five years for Julius II., than he did in seven years for Leo.
