The Sibyl of Delphi

Cagliostro shifted to Rome with his wife. He again tried to establish himself as forecaster. His most famous prediction was made regarding the fall of Louis XVI of France. As the sign of his fall became apparent around October, 1789, his reputation reached its peak. As the revolt subsided, he was charged with many offences and put into prison. Though the court sentenced him to death, it was changed to life imprisonment on the intervention of pope. He started counting his days in the prison with his wife. He tried to run away from the prison but was caught in the attempt. He was transferred to the fort of San Leo from St. Angelo prison. He was found dead on August 26, 1795. His wife died a year later.
