unusual facts about Richard Montagu


Richard Montagu

He was also apparently at this time much mixed up in the tortuous negotiations with the papacy which were conducted through Gregorio Panzani; at the same time Montagu was asking license for his son to visit Rome, and the matter became in the hands of William Prynne a plausible accusation of romanising.
