It is said that nothing is now talked of in Siena but your vanity, which is the subject of universal ridicule.

Certain it is that here at the baths, where Churchmen and the laity are very numerous, your name is on every one's tongue.

Our displeasure is beyond words, for your conduct has brought the holy state and office into disgrace; the people will say that they make us rich and great, not that we may live a blameless life, but that we may have means to gratify our passions.
This is the reason the princes and the powers despise us and the laity mock us; this is why our own mode of living is thrown in our face when we reprove others.

Contempt is the lot of Christ's vicar because he seems to tolerate these actions.

You, dear son, have charge of the bishopric of Valencia, the most important in Spain; you are a chancellor of the Church, and what renders your conduct all the more reprehensible is the fact that you have a seat among the cardinals, with the Pope, as advisors of the Holy See.
