(whom he afterwards cordially supported), removed to See also:Modena, where his youngest son had most of his See also:early See also:education
.

.
In return for important service rendered by his father, he was in 1527 nominated by See also:Clement VIII. to the see of Modena, and consecrated in
1533 after a contest
.
From 1535 he was constantly entrusted by See also:Paul III. with See also:diplomatic See also:missions; he was See also:nuncio (1536)

meeting having been a concession to his See also:diplomacy
.
The legates arrived on the 22nd of See also:November, but no council assembled
.
The See also:death of Paul III
.
(1549) deprived him of a See also:good friend
.
The views of the Reformers had spread in his See also:diocese, and he was suspected of temporizing with them
.
He resigned his see (155c) in favour of the Dominican Egidio Foscherari, reserving to himself an See also:annual See also:pension and the patronage of livings
.
See also:Julius III., at the instance of the See also:duke of Milan, gave him (1553) the See also:rich see of See also:Novara (which he resigned in 156o for the see of Albano) and sent him as nuncio to the diet of See also:Augsburg (1555), from which he was immediately recalled by the death of Julius (See also:March 23)
.
In See also:June 1557 Paul IV. imprisoned him in the See also:castle of St Angelo (with others, including Pole, and Foscherari), on suspicion of Lutheran See also:heresy

The See also:prosecution entirely failed, and Morone might have had his See also:liberty. but refused to
leave See also:prison unless Paul IV. publicly acknowledged his innocence

.
18, 1559), and took See also:part in the See also:election of See also:Pius IV

See also:Ochino, in the twenty-eighth of his Dialogi See also:XXX., 1563 has a colloquy on the treatment of heretics, between Pius IV. and Morone, in which the latter maintains: " Errantes in viam revocandi, non occidendi." This really hits the position of Morone, a sincere See also:Catholic, to whom persecution was abhorrent
.
He presided at the Tridentine Council from the loth of See also:April to the 4th of See also:December 1563, and endeavoured to exercise a conciliatory See also:influence
.
At the end of 1564 Foscherari died, and Morone was reinstated in the see of Modena
.
On the death of Pius IV
.
(1565) he came near to being elected pope
