[Footnote 37: Pope John XXII. (in 1334) left behind him, at
Avignon, eighteen millions of gold florins, and the value of
seven millions more in plate and jewels. See the Chronicle
of John Villani, (l. xi. c. 20, in Muratori's Collection,
tom. xiii. p. 765,) whose brother received the account from
the papal treasurers. A treasure of six or eight millions
sterling in the xivth century is enormous, and almost
incredible.]
