Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Adventures of Signor Gaudentio Di Lucca: Being the Substance of His Examination Before the Fathers of the Inquisition, at Bologna, in Italy; Giving an Account of an Unknown Country, in the Midst of the Desarts of Africa; Copied From the Original Manuscript in St. Mark's Library, at Venice Beside, the succession of new popes, and, generally speaking, the change of other officers attending it, might make them be less upon their guard, as the secretary seems to hint in his letter. Neither is there any thing that might do him any harm, in case he were discovered; especially writing to a friend of his own communion, and a priest as Signor Rhedi was; which is likewise seen by the letter. As to the second Quaere, The manuscript came into the publisher's hands by the means of the same Signor Rhedi, who is an honour to his church, profession, and country, and one of the most learned and polite men in the world. He is not so bigotted to his religion or profession, as to shun the company of the Heretical Tramontani, a title the Italians generally give us, but loves and esteems a learned man, though of a different persuasion. One reason for this may be, that he breathes a freer air at Venice, than they do in the other parts of Italy.
