For those of unfamiliar with the life of that notorious womanizer and rake, it might be interesting to learn that for a time he was a secular priest, attached to the Cardinal Acquaviva. In spite of his later reputation, he was actually brought down for his role in helping two young lovers flee, not due to any of his numerous extramarital dalliances. If he had managed to stay in the Church, his wit and the patronage of Cardinal Acquaviva would almost certainly led to his advancement, and upon getting a "red hat" he would be legally eligible to be elected to the throne of St. Peter.
