POPE JULIUS III. seated by the Fountain of Acqua Vergine, surrounded by Cardinals.
JULIUS. / Tell me, why is it ye are discontent, / You, Cardinals Salviati and Marcello, / With Michael Angelo? What has he done, / Or left undone, that ye are set against him? / When one Pope dies, another is soon made; / And I can make a dozen Cardinals, / But cannot make one Michael Angelo.
