Et in esso seraglio fatta la statua sopra un’alta base collocare, da negocij libero quivi per via di diporto spesse fiate era solito di venire, et co suoi baroni di varie cose divisando, facendo nel ragionamento alcuna bugia cascare, la statua à ridere incitava: di che egli gran diletto haver solea.

And in the seraglio he had the statue placed on a high base. When he was free from his affairs the Prince used to come there often to amuse himself. And when he discussed various topics with his barons, he dropped a lie in the argumentation to tempt the statue to laugh which gave him great delight.
