A34790 A letter written to Dr. Burnet, giving an account of Cardinal Pool's secret powers from which it appears, that it was never intended to confirm the alienation that was made of abbeylands : to which are added, two breves that Card. Pool brought over, and some other of his letters, that were never before printed. Coventry, William, Sir, 1628?-1686.; Pole, Reginald, 1500-1558. 1685 (1685) Wing C6631; ESTC R17149 17,951 40

the_o movable_a good_n that_o be_v consume_v by_o they_o yet_o since_o the_o perfect_a of_o the_o reduction_n of_o england_n will_v become_v so_o much_o the_o easy_a as_o the_o pope_n give_v the_o

for_o he_o reserve_v all_o to_o the_o pope_n confirmation_n and_o good_a pleasure_n in_o all_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v of_o such_o importance_n that_o the_o holy_a see_n ought_v first_o to_o be_v

he_o please_v and_o the_o agreement_n that_o he_o make_v afterward_o with_o the_o parliament_n be_v of_o no_o force_n till_o they_o be_v confirm_v by_o the_o pope_n and_o as_o the_o pope_n that_o

till_o it_o be_v annul_v at_o rome_n to_o this_o as_o these_o paper_n will_v offer_v a_o answer_n since_o his_o settlement_n be_v to_o have_v no_o force_n till_o it_o be_v confirm_v by_o the_o
