    I puzzled that one a while before consulting the Oracle that is Google Books for clarification:

    “The Palazzo di Colonna is a very Spacious and splendid edifice, and belongs to the constable Colonna, Duke of Paliano. On the steps before this palace are a marble statue
    of a barbarian monarch, a large buft of Alexander the Great, with Bucephalus represented on its breast; and
    fome steps higher is a Medusa’s head of porphyry, supposed to have belonged to Nero’s golden palace, with this inscription… “In this golden house are seen memorials of Nero, without his wicked actions; and the head of Medusa, without the mischievous effects of it: An indication, that only
    here Medusa’s can be softened, and Nero’s will not be tolerated” (From Johann Georg Keyssler’ “Travels”)

    Ha! The Romans really were the masters of satire.

    No comments were allowed on the conference, but I had to say somewhere that these men were a godsend back in the good old days of Mother Angelica and EWTN. What a difference their knowledge and zeal for the faith were to so many Catholics, including ourselves. Thank you, gentlemen. Thank you, Fr. Z., and all faithful priests and bishops.
