pardonmonger

— I read of Tecelius, the Popes pardonmonger in Germany, that having by sale of indulgences scraped together a huge masse of money and returning for Rome, he was met and eased of his cash by an odde fellow; who being afterwards prosecuted for a felon, produced a pardon for future sinnes granted him by Tecelius himself, and being thereupon acquitted by the Judge, he roasted that which that other old fox had taken in hunting.
