| The papal master of ceremonies did describe a particularly lurid dinner party that Cesare, not, I should say, not the Borgia Pope, but that Cesare held in the Vatican. And at the end of the meal, the guests removed all the big silver candelabra onto the ground, and then scattered chestnuts all over the floor and invited in a bevy of naked ladies, who then went around on their hands and knees, bobbing up and down their heads to pick up these chestnuts in their mouths. And then, at the end, once all the chestnuts had been collected, and, presumably, all the wares, as it were, had been displayed, then the male guest who had sex with the largest number of these prostitutes was ceremonially given a present of a very expensive pair of gloves. So, those things seem to be true. I mean, there are plenty of later popes where things like that happened. |
