Note 33 — IX LORETO TO THE BATHS OF LUCCA
W. G. (William George) Waters translation
Robert d’Anjou, Duke of Apulia. Prato came under his sway in 1313, and in 1326 passed to his son Charles of Calabria. In 1350 the city was sold to the Florentines for 17,500 gold florins. The statue no longer exists. Montaigne again mistakes the lilies of Florence for those of France.
