[Footnote 36: Era bell' homo, (l. ii. c. l. p. 399.) It is
remarkable, that the riso sarcastico of the Bracciano
edition is wanting in the Roman MS., from which Muratori has
given the text. In his second reign, when he is painted
almost as a monster, Rienzi travea una ventresca tonna
trionfale, a modo de uno Abbate Asiano, or Asinino, (l. iii.
c. 18, p. 523.)]
