Excerpt from History of the City of Rome in the Middle Ages, Vol. 8: Part I
Learning of the Pope's demise, he gave orders for the immediate future. Micheletto, pointing his dagger at the breast of Cardinal Casanova, forced him to deliver up the keys of the papal treasury. Gold and silver, the contents of two chests, were made over to the ailing son of the late pope. Everything else, the very tapestries on the walls, became the spoils of the servants in the palace.2 The doors of the Vatican were then thrown open and the death of Alexander VI. Was announced. It was evening. Rome re-echoed to a thousand voices rejoicing and clamouring for revenge.
