A17167	A confutation of the Popes bull which was published more then two yeres agoe against Elizabeth the most gracious Queene of England, Fraunce, and Ireland, and against the noble realme of England together with a defence of the sayd true Christian Queene, and of the whole realme of England. By Henry Bullinger the Elder.; Bullae papisticae ante biennium contra sereniss. Angliae, Franciae & Hyberniae Reginam Elizabetham, & contra inclytum Angliae regnum promulgatae, refutatio.

a Frier of the same order in his beadroll of heretikes sayth thus At such time as S. Dominike with xij Abbotes of the order of Cistertiū preached the Croysie against the heretikes of Albigia the Catholikes that is to say the Crossed papists slew a hundred thousand of them Of whom one hundred foure score continewing in their stubbornesse agaynst the Church of Rome chose to be burned rather then to abiure their heresie Which thing was also done And S. Dominik abode x. yeares in those quarters in the office of preaching and weeding out of heresie when all the rest returned home to their owne Thus reporteth he of his owne founder of that butcherie Wherby it appeareth that the pope had good cause afterward to canonize him and make hym one of his Saintes Neither is it without cause that Dominikes mother being great with child of him dreamed that she bare in her wombe a dog or as other say a wolfe with a firebrand in his mouth wherewith he did set the whole world on fire c. But I will returne to my matter Therfore at the Popes preaching of the Croysie the Lantgraue of Thuring addressed himselfe to the warres Againe there is running to weapon on both sides agayne wretched Germanie is by the Popes incēsing rent a sunder wounded with her owne weapons and slayne with ciuill encounters Conradus Duke of Sweueland the sonne of Friderike proclaimed king of Romanes encoūtering the Lantgraue of Thuring vanquisheth chaseth and sleaeth all his hoste for all their being marked with the Crosse. The same yeare the Lantgraue dyed of a wound The princes of Germanie that tooke the popes part being not yet made the wiser by their so great miseries but fauoring the Pope more then their owne countrey set vp another king against Friderike and his sonne Conrade For Pope Innocent sent his Legate Cardinall Peter Capuce into Germanie who calling the princes together to Colon caused them to chuse Williā Earle of Holland king agaynst Friderike Conrade Which thing wrought new broyles in the Empyre And forasmuch as Pope Innocent had excōmunicated king Conrade also He ceased not to persecute his sonne Corradine the rightfull heyre of Puell and Sicilie likewise and to dispossesse him of his fathers heritage In which matter Alexāder the fourth Vrbane the fourth and Clement the fourth which succeded next shewed themselues no flothfull folowers of Innocentes steppes Wherof Corradine set forth a publike proclamation wherin he lamentably reckeneth vp the sore wronges which those Bishops did vnto him And first he declareth how Innocent the fourth anoyed him being yet an innocent and fatherlesse yea and committed to the wardship of the Church by beréeuing him of his kingdome and dealing it among his owne graundchildren and kinsmē After whom folowed Alexander and he allured another mā to take his kingdome from him by force And Vrbane also shewing small vrbanitie towardes him called Charles king of Fraunce out of his owne Realme to take possession of the kingdome which was due to the sayd Corradine by descent from his father And Clement voyde of all clemencie set vp the sayd Charles as counterking agaiust Corradine and so most wrongfully spoyled the right heyre of his inheritance By meanes whereof he was compelled to séeke his right by rightfull force of armes which was wrongfully withheld him by the wrongfull demeanor of the Bishops These thinges are to be read in the Chronicles of Nauclerus Duryng this broyle Pope Clement the fourth hearing how Corradine was raysing a power in Germanie did put forth a Bull wherby he forbade all faithfull Christiās to call Corradine king of Sicill or to giue him any Councell or ayde agaynst Charles whom he had crowned king of Sicill for a péece of money Thus the pope blowes vp the trumpet the Christians fall together by the eares again It commes to hand strokes at the first the Germanes get the better hand and the Frenchmen are put to flight But when the Germanes brake their aray and fell more gréedely to the riffeling of the baggage of their enemyes thē was méete for them the Frenchmen fallyng againe in order of battell gaue a fresh charge vpon them vnwares and sleaing them down as they were escattered obteined the victorie There were taken two Princes Corradine king of Sicile and Duke of Sweueland and Fridericke Duke of Austriche who had takē part with Corradine to ayde him Also there were other Lordes and noblemen taken who were all caryed prisoners to Naples there kept in very streyt ward It is reported that Charles wrate to the Pope for his aduise what he would haue done with the prisoners and that the Pope amōg others aunswered The life of Corradine is the death of Charles and the death of Corradine is the life of Charles But Robert Earle of Flaunders the sonne in law of Charles by whose aduise he had gotten the victorie remembring the state of mens affaires counseled Charles to make peace and to bynd vnto him by bond of alyance these two young Princes of excellent towardnesse borne of the noblest houses in Germanie and the ofspryng of Emperors wishing that Corradine should haue Charles his daughter and Frederike his néere But whyle the tyme was prolonged in these consultations Robert returned home and then the bloud royall was condemned to death And so the xxix of October beyng Monday in the yeare of our Lord. 1268. a place was couered with purple there was Fridericke first beheaded with an axe Whose head Corradine taking vp and kissing it with teares lamentably bewayled the cruell death of that giltlesse young Prince his deare frend of whose destruction he himself was the cause Afterward hauing greatly complayned of the bitternesse and trecherie of his enemyes who contrarie to all right conscience whereas of all others he was most innocēt and blamelesse had bereft him of the heritage which his father graundfather greatgraundfather and graundfathers graundfather had purchased with their bloud and hauing committed his case to the souerein iudge calling vpon God the reuenger of trayterousnesse and murther he appealed to Christ our Lord and God and to his iudgement seate and cried vnto him for vengeance with castyng his gloues vp to heauenward and then in his owne right bequeathing these kingdomes to his Cousin Peter king of Aragon whose graundmother was sister to the Emperour Friderike he held out his necke vnfearefully to the execution and had his head striken of lastly eleuen noblemen of Sweueland and Italie suffered the same execution Among whom Gerhard of Pisa a noble gentlemā was one Within a few yeares after Peter king of Aragon began to lay clayme to Sicilie And the Westerne Frenchmen haue now about ij hundred foure score and seuen yeares striued with the Spanyardes for those kingdomes with exceding bloudshed and wasting of the countreys But in the sayd two Princes were extinguished the lynes of the Dukes

Ministers seruing for the same purpose Therfore render vnto euery mā his dew tribute to whom tribute is due Custome to whom custome is due awe to whom awe is due honour to whom honour is due The same Apostle willeth subiectes also to obey their Princes that is to wit their lawes and ordinaunces not onely that they may by their due obedience escape the punishments which Princes execute vpon the disobedient but bycause it is Gods will we should do so and we must yeld obedience to his commaundement except we had leuer to fall into the hand of Gods vengeance although princes punish vs not And this is it that the Prophet ment by saying ye must obey not onely for feare but also for conscience Also they that resist the Magistrate procure themselues damnation And truly this obedience stretcheth so farre that if the Prince néede thy seruice in the warres for the defence of his Realme against inuasions thou owest euen thy body to thy Prince yea and thy life and therefore much more thy goodes These are the thinges these I say are the thinges that all subiectes owe to their souereines by the allowance and commaundement of God and therfore the Englishmen also owe the same thinges to their Quéene True it is in déede that S. Peter sayd we must obey God rather then men howbeit that is in such things as are commaunded expresly against God and his word But the politike or ciuill gouernement is stablished and not infringed by Gods word And most of all it is stablished if the Princes be godly For the Princes that gouerne their people quietly and enforce not their subiectes to any wicked thinges but honour Gods seruice spread it abroad more more are well liked of God and helped by him And truly this obedience of the subiectes which God hath inioyned them kepeth them in their dewtie and perswadeth them that they attempt not any thing against their Prince or Magistrate As for those that rise against their Prince either by priuie practise or open force and breake the common peace they are not onely disobedient but also traytors and hated of god And yet it is the thing that the Pope in his Bull not so much teacheth as by his manaces indeuereth to inforce the noblemen and commons of England vnto The noble Realme of England through Gods grace cleaueth well together in lawes spirituall and temporall and the subiectes therof enioy peace and publike profite by the benefite of their most gracious Quéene Therfore not to be willing hence forth to obey her as the Pope would haue it what els is it then to trouble the state of the whole Realme and consequētly to stirre vp rebellion and sedition wickedly and to procure themselues assured and greuous damnation at Gods hand But heare how God hath alwayes hated seditious persons and how greuously also he hath euermore punished seditiōs Chore Dathan and Abyron with their complices raised a sedition against Moses the chaplein of Gods people But the earth opened and swallowed them vp with their housholdes and all that euer they had A right dreadfull example surely to the intent that none should hereafter ryse agaynst their Princes any more The Israelites also raysed an insurrection agaynst the same Moses in the wildernesse But for their so doing they were shet out of the land of promise and by the space of xxxviij yeares together ouerwhelmed with sundry calamities tyred and forspent with dayly trauelyng in the desert and at length also in sundry times consumed and made away with horrible kindes of death Also in the booke of Iudges the Ephraemites made an vprore against Iephthe who had deserued well at their handes But through the vengeance of God for their vngracious rebellion and vnthankefulnesse there were slaine of them about a xlij thousand What befell in Dauids time to Absolon Seba the sonne of Bithri when they rebelled seditiously against their lawfull king Dauid it is better knowen then that if may séeme requisite to be setforth in many wordes There are in the holy Scriptures and the wordly histories of sundry kingdomes many exāples to be seene no lesse horrible then these of seditious persons that were most greuously confoūded by the lord For the Lord being rightuous and a louer of order and peace neuer spared any such And to the intent I may also bring somewhat out of latter tunes there is a notable example of the punishment of traiterous rebellion and disobedience and periurie in king Rafe of Rinfield chosen king of Romanes at the cōmaundemēt of pope Gregorie the vij against the Emperour Henry the iiij lawfully ordeined of God and succeding in the Empire by descent from his aunceters who were very good Princes The said Gregorie had prophesied out of that chayre of his in the Easter wéeke that the same yeare which was the yeare of our Lord .1080 the false Emperor should dye adding this protestation further neuer take me more for Pope but plucke me from the Altar if the false Emperour be not dead betwene this and Whitsontyde Which prophesie like as was the prophesie of Caiaphas was fulfilled in déede howbeit after another meaning then the Pope thought of For the false Emperour Rafe who was created Emperour by the Pope against Henry whom the Pope had deposed discharging all his subiectes of their faith and obedience towardes him was wounded to death the selfe same yeare Thrise before had he traiterously fought with Henry to his owne losse and now trusting to the prophesie of his blessed dad Pope Gregorie the vij he repayred his power againe the fourth tyme and in the moneth of October encountered with the army of Henry in the fieldes of Misnia where he was put to shamefull flight agayne and receiued a very great losse and blouddy slaughter In the same battell the right hand of the sayd Rafe was striken of of the which wound he dyed within a few dayes after leauing the Empyre which he had receiued of the Pope fulfilling the prophesie of the Pope his creator It is reported sayth Abbas Vspurgēsis in the 238. leafe of his Chronicles that Rafe now drawing towardes his end and beholding his right hand cut of gaue a sore sigh and said to the Bishops which by chaunce were present Lo this is the hand wherwith I tooke mine othe of allegeance to my Lord Henry the Emperour And behold now I leaue both his kingdome and this present life Sée whether you that made me mount vp into his chayre of estate haue led me a right way which thing other storywriters report in these wordes it was by your impulsion that I haue fought so often vnluckely Looke you to it whether you haue led me a right way or no. Ge your wayes performe your first faith plighted to your king for I shall go to my fathers Now ye honorable Péeres of England and thou noble Realme of England in generall learne ye by all these
