Excerpt from History of the City of Rome in the Middle Ages, Vol. 5: Part II
IN the earlier part of the translation I have only given an Index at the end of Vols. II. And IV. I think it, therefore necessary to say a few words in explanation of the Index I have added to Vol. V lest the reader, unacquainted with Gregorovius in the original, might be led to congratulate himself on having reached the end of the work.

VI.
