Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Latin Christianity, Vol. 5 of 9: Including That of the Popes to the Pontificate of Nicolas V Rome was no safe place for either Pope each faction had its armed force, its wild and furious rabble. As Victor advanced to storm the stronghold near St. Peter's, occupied by his rival, he was hooted by the adverse mob: boys and women shouted and shrieked, called him by Opprobrious names, heretic, blasphemer sung Opprobrious verses, taunted him with the name of Octavian, so infamous in the history of the Popes; a pasquinade was devised for the occasion in Latin verse.e On the eleventh day appeared Otho Frangipani and a party of the nobles, dispersed the forces Of Victor, opened the gates Of the stronghold, and led forth Alex ander amid the acclamations of his partisans, but hurried him hastily away through the gates of the city.
