Conrad Salier:

I have expressed my opinion on this matter to the Bavarians, and I shall express it here.

It is not worth excommunication to deal with these people.

What are the Milanese: two islands? And we are so sanguinary that we cannot wait a short while to take two measly islands? We risk everything if we decide to ignore the order. While some people in this esteemed body do not view the Pope as a force to be listened to (*Conrad makes the sign of the cross*) the peasants do. And rest assured, my friends, they will make themselves heard. If we want tranquility at home then we would be wise to wait.
