On the tenth he addressed a brief from there to the city of Nepi, in which he commanded the municipality thenceforth to obey Lucretia, Duchess of Biselli, as their true sovereign.

On the twelfth he sent his daughter a communication in which he empowered her to remit certain taxes to which the citizens of Nepi had hitherto been subject.[67] Lucretia, therefore, had become the mistress of two large domains--a fact which clearly shows that she stood in high favor with her father.
She did not again return to Spoleto, but entrusted its government to a lieutenant.

Although Alexander made Cardinal Gurk legate for Perugia and Todi early in October, he reserved Spoleto for his daughter.

Later, August 10, 1500, he made Ludovico Borgia--who was Archbishop of Valencia--governor of this city, without, however, impairing his daughter's rights to the large revenue which the territory yielded.
As early as October 14th Lucretia returned to Rome.

November 1, 1499, she gave birth to a son, who was named, in honor of the Pope, Rodrigo.
Her firstborn was baptized with great pomp November 11th in the Sistine Chapel--not the chapel now known by that name, but the one which Sixtus IV had built in S.Peter's.
