When the pope dies and conclave rules emerge
A long historical passage describes the pope's death rituals and how the sacred college handles the dying pope, the camerlengo’s duty, and the process of election. It notes that rules for papal elections are strict, with majority and two thirds needed, and that laymen can be eligible, though cardinals dominate. It also mentions past veto rights by France, Austria, and Spain and the possibility of holding a conclave outside Italy. The text shifts to a personal reminiscence of a Roman family dinner interrupted by an iron box delivering a lavish meal to a palace.
