Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Lorenzo De' Medici, Called the Magnificent, Vol. 2
Soon after the termination of hostilities between Six tus IV. And the republic of Florence, Lorenzo began to unfold those comprehensive plans for securing the peace of Italy on a permanent foundation, which confer the highest honour on his political life. Of the extensive authority which he had obtained by his late conduct, every day afforded additional proof; and it appears to have been his intention to employ it for the wisest and most salutary purposes. By whatever motives he was led to this great attempt, he, pursued it with deep policy and unceasing assiduity, and finally experiended a degree of success equal to his warmest expectations.
