Quotes from Dunnett
[edit | edit source]CM 5.9 In Spain, far from the great theatre of his victories and his blundering son, at half-past two before dawn on a still day in the third week of September Charles V, once King of Spain and Emperor of Germany, ruler of Sicily and the Low countries, conquerer of Peru and of Mexico, gave up his soul to his God.
