In 1585 he was made a See also:cardinal, and subsequently discharged a delicate See also:mission to See also:Poland with skill. His moderation and experience commended him to his See also:fellow cardinals, and on the 3oth of See also:January 1592 he was elected pope, to succeed See also:Innocent IX. While not hostile to See also:- PHILIP

But James was only See also:half in See also:earnest, and, besides, dared not See also:risk a See also:breach with his subjects. Upon the failure of the See also:line of See also:Este, Clement claimed the reversion of See also:Ferrara and reincorporated it into the States of the See also:- CHURCH

But in their doctrinal controversy with the See also:Dominicans (see See also:MOLINA, LUIS) he refrained from a decision, being unwilling to offend either party. Under Clement the publication of the revised edition of the See also:Vulgate, begun by See also:Sixtus V., was finished; the See also:Breviary, See also:Missal and Pontifical received certain corrections; the See also:Index was See also:expanded; the Vatican library enlarged; and the Collegium Clementinum founded. Clement was an unblushing nepotist; three of his nephews he made cardinals, and to one of them gradually surrendered the See also:control of affairs. But on the other See also:hand among those whom he promoted to the cardinalate were such men as See also:Baronius, See also:Bellarmine and See also:Toledo. During this pontificate occurred the burning of See also:Giordano See also:Bruno for See also:heresy; and the tragedy of the See also:Cenci (see the respective articles). Clement died on the 5th of See also:March 1605, and was succeeded by See also:Leo XI.
