To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is not quite clear what steps he took — whether he went by another way, or whether he sent private information of his errand to Trebbio — but in any case, Maria had notice of the proposed attack in time to escape with Cosimo. They made their way across the hill-country and reached in safety Forli, the historic city of Caterina Sforza, the mother of Giovanni. We wonder how much interest Maria and her son took in the heroic story of old, and the famous Castello which had been the scene of such... desperate conflicts ? From Forli they went on to Imola, where they found a safe refuge with friends of the Medici in the Papal city. But alas for the gallant captain who had so gene- rously risked his post and his honour to save them ! Messer Otto da Montauta, on his return to Florence, was tried for disobedience and treachery, cruelly tortured, and long confined in a dark prison. The next that we hear about Madonna Maria and her son is the account by Ammirato of their pre- sence at Bologna for the coronation of j the Emperor 224 THE ROMANCE OF A MEDICI WARRIOR Charles V.
