in quoquo conuelli Wherfore afore the lyuyng god which hath coÌ„maunded vs to reygne afore his terrible dredfull iugement we obtest require all our successours the eÌ„perours all the optimates the dukes erls also the most noble senatours all the people in the hole worlde which now are or herafter shall be that none of theÌ„ all any maner way infriÌ„ge or breake this oure priuylege or minysshe it in anye poynte How resonable howe deuoute godly an adiuration is this euen moche lyke as if the wolfe shulde obtest besech other wolues the shepeherds by his owne innoceÌ„cie fidelyte that y e

hath takeÌ„ hath deuyded among his sonnes and his frendes Why are you so greatly afrayde O Constantyne If that whiche you do be of god it can nat be dyssolued or fordone But if it be nat of god youre worke or dede shall now staÌ„de But I se perceyue right well you dyd coueyte to couÌ„terfeyte y e wordes of the apocalipse where it is sayde I testify to him that hereth all the wordes of y e

prophecie of this boke god shall take away his ê‘te out of y e boke of lyfe out of y e holy cyte But you neuer red y e Apocalipse wherfore these were nat your wordes Â¶ Si quis auteÌ„ quod non

banisshed be he for euermore from the syght of god with the deuyll all wycked persons This fearfull senteÌ„ce coÌ„mination it nat wonte to be vsed of any Caesar or seculare prince but of the prestes of the false goddes in olde tyme now of the ecclesiastical persons These ar nat therfore the wordes of Constantine but of some folyshe clerke which wotteth neither what he speaketh neither how he

letharge and maner of forgettynge hym selfe he retourneth agayn to the euerlasting paines as if he had nat spokeÌ„ of theÌ„ before But if these were the threttes and execrations or cursynges of CoÌ„stantyne I wolde curse him agayn as beyng a tyrante and the destroyer of my coÌ„mune weale after the maner of the Romains I wolde threten him that I my selfe wolde be reuenged on him But now who regardeth or setteth any whitte by the execration or curse of the most couetouse felow and which after the maner of stage players countrefayteth and fayneth wordes and wolde make other men afrayde vnder the person of Constantyne This is euen properly to be an hypocryte if we set the oute and consyder well the signifycation of this greke worde hypochrita vnder the ê‘sone of another man to hyde thyne owne Â¶ Huius vero impertalis decreti paginam proprus manibus roborantes suê‘ veneraÌ„duÌ„ corpus beati Petri posuimus And we haue streÌ„gthyng fortifyeng the pagyne of this eÌ„periall decree with our owne handes haue layde it vpon the worshipfull corps or bodye of the blessed Peter Was it paper or parchemeÌ„t this pagine wherin these thinges were written How be it a pagine we do cal the

may be sayde also of many other bokes wherof to speke here is no conuenient place for how can y e thynge be truly tolde of any man which thinge is nat yet done or how can y e thynge be coÌ„tayned w t

y t it was borne yet that it dyd neuer retourne after his deth and burial namely seyng that it was roborated and strengthed afore that it was written and that nat with one hande but with both the handes of Cesar And what meanest thou whan thou sayst roboratyng strengthyng was it strengthed with the hande wryttynge of Cesar hiÌ„selfe or els was it sealed with his signet This was a great strengthyng doutles and moche greatter than if he hadde grauen it in tables of brasse But yet neded it nat to wryte them in brasse seyng that the paper was layde vpon the body of blessed Peter why spekest thou here no worde of Paule which lyeth buryed with Peter and they both togeder myght better and more safely kepe it than the body of the one of them alone you see here the craftes and malycious subteltie of this our most wicked and gylefull Synon Because the donation of Constantyne can nat be euydently proued therfore he sayde that the priuilege is nat wrytten in tables of brasse

C. yeres were expired To speke this or thinke it is playne madnesse But now it is tyme lest I be made to longe tediouse seyng that we haue cutte mangled the cause of our aduersarys to giue it his dedly wouÌ„de to kyl it with one stroke Â¶ The thyrde princypall parte of this oration in which the author sheweth that Constantine was become Christen afore that Siluester was pope that those gyftes whiche ConstaÌ„tine gaue were gyuen to the pope nexte after Siluester which same also were but meane or small thinges no more than suffycient to the popes sustentation EVery hystorie almost which is worthy the name of an historie telleth and maketh mention that ConstaÌ„tine euyn whan he was a childe became ChristeÌ„ with his father ConstaÌ„tius y e long tyme afore that Siluester was pope as Eusebius y e writer of the ecclesiasticall historie whome Rufyne a man right exellently lerned hath traÌ„slated into the latyne tonge and hathe also added two bokes of his owne tyme which were bothe of them welnere in CoÌ„stantines tyme. Besydes this we haue also y e testimonie witnesse of y e pope of Rome whiche nat onely was present at the doyng of these thinges but also bare a great rule in the same beyng also nat a witnesse but the author or doer nat y e teller or rehercer of another maÌ„nes busynes but of his owne He whome I do meane is Melchiades y e pope nexte afore Siluester which saith in this wise The church was come euyn vnto this poynt now y t nat only people natioÌ„s but also the princes of Rome whiche helde thempier of the worlde dyd come together to the faith of Christ and to the sacramentes of the faith Among whom the most deuoute man Constantine fyrst of all other openly gettyng the faith belefe of the trouth gaue lycence through out all y e worlde to as many as were vnder his dominion and gouernaunce nat onely to be made Christen men but also to buylde churches and he ordayned landes to be gyuen And to be short the afore rehersed emperoure gaue exceding gret giftes and he began first the buyldinge of the churche of saynt Peter in so moche that he did forsake his emperiall seate or place and graunted it to the vse and behofe of blessed Peter his successours Lo here Melchiades maketh mention of nothyng that was gyuen by ConstaÌ„tine but onely the palace of Laterane and certayne other laÌ„des of whiche Gregorie very ofte maketh meÌ„tion in his regestre Where than are they nowe whiche do nat suffre it to be doubted whether the donation of ConstaÌ„tine be of value and strengthe or nat seyng that the sayde donation or gyfte bothe was made afore Syluesters tyme and was also of priuate thinges onely which thyng although it is playne euident ynough yet that nat withstanding we must somwhat dispute reson of that priuilege which these folyssh felowes are wonte to alledge and bring forth Â¶ The fourth priÌ„cipall ê‘te of this oration in which the author sheweth it to be vntruly sayde that the copye or example of this donation is founde in the decrees or elles taken out of the historie of saynt Syluester and also declareth what folysshe what impossyble what barbarous and what repugnauÌ„t contrary thiÌ„ges with other vnresonablenes is coÌ„tayned in the sayde copie besydes this he maketh mention of the fayned or friuolouse donation of certayn other emperours And laste of al he sheweth that in case it were so that Syluester or any other pope had at any tyme possessed these thiÌ„ges yet being ones put out of possessyoÌ„ so long coÌ„tinuiÌ„g dispossessed as they haue done they caÌ„ nat now after so long space of tyme clayme theÌ„ agayn neither by the lawe of god nor man c.
