decrees of ancient Fathers but by their owne vsurpings and perswasions by the motions of certaine their practises Yet heerewith it was decreed that immediatly when an Emperour was chosen hee should straight way giue notice to the Bishop of Rome declaring how hee was by Gods grace and in due sorte elected as right and lawfull Emperor that he was a christian and worthie that Office wherfore he desired the Pope that it would please him to confirme him in the Empire And if by chance the Pope gain-said him this without iust cause occasion then the Emperor elected might receiue his crowning at the hands of any Christian bishop And because wee may the better see not only this decree to be the first that tooke this authoritie from the Pope which some holde to belong to him of necessitie let vs consider who crowned the Emperors of Constātinople who those that were in Italy before Charlemainge who those that were Heathen before Constantine None of these were crowned by the pope and yet they were Emperors of most great authority and most worthy and mightie princes as in the Histories wee may read Charles the fourth ordeined and added afterward many lawes decrees both worthy memory and profitable especially he ordained that when soeuer the Emperor should sit in his seat of maiestie the Archbishop of Treuers as his great Chauncellor of the low Cuntries should sit right ouer against him the Archbishop of Magunce as great Chancellor of Germany should sit on his right hand the Archbishop of Collen great Chauncellor of Italy on his left hand the King of Bohemia on the right hand of the bishop of Magunce and hard by him the countie Palatine on the left side hard by the Archbishop of Collen should sit the Duke of Saxonie elector by him the Marquesse of Brandenburg Hee also ordained that in their statelye goings this order should be obserued the Archbishop of Treuers should goe before his Maiestie and by him on either side one of the ecclesiasticall Electors the king of Bohemia should goe alone after the Bishops Electors and after him the Elector Duke of Saxonie with the sworde of the Empyre naked in his hand on his right hand shoulde goe the Count Palatine carrying an apple of Golde which signifieth the World vnder the Empyre on the left hand of the saide Duke shoulde goe the Marquesse of Brandenburg with the Imperiall Scepter in his hand and after followed the Emperors maiestie himself And now mee thinks I haue declared sufficientlye how the Romain Empyre came to the hands of the Germanes and how the decrees touching the Empyre were ordeined And as it hath also been spoken before the Duchie of Orhen Sauoy the Realme of Arle abode in the handes of the Germanes when the male issue of Charlemaigne failed The French since that pretēded thereto a title and would by force haue recouered holden the Empire in their hands auouching that from Charlemainge the Empire was discended vnto them they considered not that besides Charlemainge was by nation a Germane and his successors had held Fraunce together with Germany vnited and vnder the Empyre that Charlemainge made alwaies his abode in Germany But the Germans chose after the line failed the mightie Duke of Saxony Otho the first who by his valor and sworde kept still the Empyre in Germanie and recouered again many prouinces beyonde Rheine as Loraine the cheife Citties of which is Metz Brabant and Burgonie and subdued in Italy the Berēgarij that would by force haue made a king of Romanes Hee restored moreouer to the Empyre Sicilie Calabria Apulia and Lombardie He had in his enterprises so great victories that he was called Otho the great and aboue all the victorious battels that he made that which he had in a great plaine neer to Augusta is most worthy of rebrance where he discomfited the army of Hungarians with a terrible conflict and freed Germany from that heathenish people who had long time vexed and spoyled them FINIS A Discription of Germany GErmany is two waies to bee vnderstood
