    Summary

    The horse the Signoria provides him with tires after a few hours, so he takes post at Scarperia to get to Imola as quickly as possible. He arrives there early in the morning of the following day, and the Duke admits him immediately. He wonders whether the man ever sleeps; it’s not unusual for men in power to keep such odd hours, and he wishes he could drag his tired body to a bed instead; his clothes are covered in dust from what seems like every back country road between Florence and Imola. His thighs are raw from riding, and he’s not sure how much longer he’s going to be able to remain standing.
