Der Andre, Cäsar Borgia, (insgemein Herzog von Valentinois genannt), gelangte zu seiner hohen Stelle durch den Glücksstern seines Vaters, und verlor sie zugleich mit diesem, trotzdem er alle mögliche Bemühung anwandte und Alles that, was ein kluger und muthiger Mann zu thun hat, um in dem Staate, den er durch die Waffen und das Glück eines Andern erhalten hatte, feste Wurzeln zu treiben.
On the other hand, Cesare Borgia, called by the people Duke Valentino, acquired his state during the ascendancy of his father, and on its decline he lost it, notwithstanding that he had taken every measure and done all that ought to be done by a wise and able man to fix firmly his roots in the states which the arms and fortunes of others had bestowed on him.
