 Annotation:"Bargrave's sole contribution to literature is a curious account called Pope Alexander the Seventh and the College of Cardinals, originally written in 1660 while Bargrave was in Rome and not originally intended for publication. The work consists of scraps selected from three anonymous contemporary Italian publications (La Giusta Statura de'Porporati, Il Nipotismo di Roma and Il Cardinalismo di Santa Chiesa; the last two by Gregorio Leti), with considerable additions of his own. The profiles were originally designed to illustrate a collection of portraits of the pope and cardinals published by Giovanni Giocomo de Rossi in 1657 called The Effigies." - Wikipedia.

This edition contains as an appendix a transcription of Bargrave's catalogue, taken from Canterbury Cathedral Library and Archive Lit. Mss. E16a.
