Leo did who denieth that but they commend Leo as being one of the chiefest citizens and so had the greatest respect of any man in the Citty they commend him also as being Bishop of Rome who with his hands was to set vp the crowne as being a sign or representation of the Empire Therefore these writers were in no heresie because they meant that either Leo did the same alone or else principally could haue done it Many other who are no lesse in number nor in respect then these doe relate vnto vs the cleane contrary they say expresly that the same was done and performed according to the decree will as is aforesaid of the Councell of Rome Sigebertussaith in the yeare 801 The Romans now who long agoe had withdrawne their affections from the Constantinopolitan Emperour as then finding very good opportunitie because that a woman when the Emperour Constantine was depriued of his sight gouerned them by his Son then proclaimed they with one accord the Emperour Charles for their Emperour they crowned him by the hand of Pope Leo they stiled him Emperour and Augustus A popish writer Theodoricus de Niem who afterwards was Bishop of Verden saith about the very time of the Coronation the people of Rome made a Law according to the old custome but it was very troublesome to recollect all things that happened so often therefore the sentence right and power of the Empire was left vnto the Emperour as we finde it written then the people of Rome transported all this vnto Charles gaue vnto him all their right and powor Blondus also in his first book decad 2 and Aneas Siluius or Pius 2. in Blondus his short relation also Iacobus Wymphelingies in his short relation of the people of Rome in the xi Chapter doe affirme that the Coronation by Leo was performed and done with the knowledge and at the entreatie of the people of Rome These are the wordes of Onuphrius Panuimus in fastis Leo by the consent of the people of Rome and at the entreatie of the clergie of Rome proclameth Charles Emperour So that from these and others who affirme that it was done by the Councell and the people of Rome must those writers be interpreted that they doe not confirme nor yet deny the same How much more is it to beleeue that which is confirmed by witnesses which is denied by none then not to beleeue those which doe confirme the same because that all of them do not affirme although there be no body that doe deny the same for after this manner writeth Michell Coccimmus very well in his booke of the transport of the Empire we must beleeue that the same transport was performed and had his power or operation from the consent and authoritie of the Romans and other people of Italy That which Innocentius the 3. wrote vnto Bartold Duke of Zaringe doth not contradict the same That the apostolicall seate of Rome transported the Roman Empire vnto the person of the famous Charles from the Grecians vnto the Germanes for in this wee consent That the Apostolicall seate vpon no other meaning did transport the Empire but that they who did transport the Empire did consent thereunto or else made declaration that they should transport the same But such a transport hath had its power from the vniforme consent of the people Hence may very plainely appeare in what maner the transport which Leo performed was done and by this meanes that is very easily ouerthrowne which they say That the Empire was transported for Heresie the occasion of the transport is here formerly related out of Sigibertus the true cause thereof was because the Emperours of the East did neglect or were carelesse of the Westerne Empire and authoritie and so as is aforesaid did let it passe this we can confirme and approue with very firme testimony Lupoldus saith in his fourth booke of the rights of the authoritie of the Empire in this maner The Grecian Emperour in the time of Carolas Magnus nay before his time also viz. when his Father Pepin and his Grandfather Carolus Martellus liued gouerned onely with the name of the Westerne Empire so that neither the Romish Church nor the other Christian Congregations nor those of the Longobardes who were contrary to all law supprest could either by the Easterne Emperour nor by their authoritie obtaine any right in the Westerne Empire so that the aforesaid Emperours made no account nor reckoning of the Westerne Empire but held it loosely as a derelict onely commanding therewith the name as appeareth in diuers Chronicles Of the same opinion is Iohannes Parisiensis in his 16. Chapter writing of the Kingly and papall power It was not done by the Pope onely but that it was the peoples desire who may subiect themselues to whom they will without preiudice to any other and therefore that was done for a necessary reason for to defend them against the Heathens and infidels because they could not be defended by any other which right they might doe for the people make the King and the Army the Emperour Aneas Syluius in his booke of the rising and authoritie of the Roman Empire saith in the 9. Chap. At the last when the Grecians were carelesse of Rome and leauing the same to be made a pray and to be ransacked one while by the Barbarians and also by others the people of Rome who with their blood had got such great riches who by their valour had erected the Monarchie of the world saluted by the name of Emperour Carolus Magnus then King of the Francks being a German borne who deliuered the Citie and the Holy place from the inuasion of enemies first greeting him with this title Patricius and afterwards Augustus the Popes good will and pleasure hereunto concurring Also saith Nauelerus in his 27. generat in the yeare 800 vpon the day of the Birth of our Lord good deliberation proceeding Leo the Pope of Rome considering that the Constantinopolitan Emperours did very carelessely defend that name and held the Westerne Empire as lost he declared with the consent of the people of Rome Charles Emperour of the Romans and crowned him with the Crowne when the commonaltie of the Romans three times cried out aloude Carolo Augusto c. Paulus Aemilius in his Historie of the Francks saith thus The Maiestie of the Emperours was now at this time and before very slight and there after he saith the principallest of the Romans being of another courage and audacitie gaue their voyces that the seate of the Empire being as it were voyde and possessed of none as if it had beene Gods will and had beene so ordained should be inuested with the King of the Francks because that he by his seruice which he had done for the Church had well deserued the same and that they were obligde and bound to him c.
