Bo-no... goes to Rome-o... to see... il Pope-o." [sniggers] Crowd: [cheers and applause] MacPhisto: "To kneel before him, I assume. I didn't kneel, when I lived in that place!" [sniggers] "Back when the Borgias were my very best friends." [wistfully] "Rodrigo! ...Cesare..." [inhales admiringly] "Lucrezia! Such fun. But MacPhisto is bored with that now. He's got new pals.
