Other than that, he must greet all Cardinals, and then he can spend any amount of time he wants in solitary prayer, before going out the balcony.

Tell that to the Burgundians.
Don't be deceived when our Revolution has finally been stamped out and they tell you things are better now even if there's no poverty to see, because the poverty's been hidden...even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more of these new and useless goods which these new industries foist on you, and even if it seems to you that "you never had so much" - that is only the slogan of those who have much more than you.
