P. men melted together all the high-Fahrenheit words they could find, forged a white-hot resolution that seared the "red and brown dictatorships" for "their shameless, hypocritical acts," their "brazen conduct," finally branded their U.

...roar rose from the Square, before the Cardinal could conclude: . . . "Pacelli, qui sibi nomen imposuit Pium Duodecimum." At this news that the new Pope, Eugenic Pacelli, Secretary of State and Cardinal Camerlengo, had taken the name of his predecessor and mentor, the crowd set up a hum and buzz.
