Excerpt from Authors Digest, Vol. 4: Edward Bulwer-Lytton to Jules Claretie

Time had deepened the solemn qualities in the character of Cola di Rienzi. For the past six years he had grown steadily in popular favor, and had now begun to appeal openly to the people. He had no desire to be a demagogue; his one end was the restoration of Rome, which could be brought about only by the universal movement of the people. He asked for equal laws and peace alike for the noblemen and the plebeians. One of his first steps was to set up a picture before the market place, symbolizing the disasters that threatened Rome. This picture stirred the people to great excitement.

About this time, Walter de Montreal was attracted one night by a light in an uninhabited part of the Aventine. Look ing through a. Rent in the wall, he saw a hundred cloaked men gathered around one who was concluding an address.
