Should he at any time disobey the sentence and be captured, his captors to receive 1,000 ducats from his effects, he remaining for one year in one of the Signory's dungeons, and then to return to the boundaries assigned him. The person who shall reveal the aforesaid things, shall have his name kept secret, and gain 2,000 ducats. | |||
