Citation(s)

«Even an illegitimate daughter attracts suitors and marries well, for power rather than love. A bon droyt. Bianca Maria was married to Francesco, a brilliant and only slightly treacherous condottiere. He had already led troops against the duchy. To buy loyalty with a pretty wife is one thing, but to receive loyalty quite another. Francesco has a wandering eye for power and money, remaining a wild card, doing as he willed, regardless of the aims of others. In that same year, her father died and she cannot inherit. That wandering eye caught the throne in its sight. Francesco claimed the duchy, as son-in-law, to become Duke of Milan. His tongue is hard like his prick, pointed as he takes aim. I take thee to be my wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness, and in health, til death do us part, if the holy church will ordain it: And thereto I plight thee my troth.»
